10/10. I really enjoyed this school. I love how interactive it was, and how fun learning was made. The teachers and staff at this school allowed and aided me in my growth academically and overall at this school. My mom and I were worried about attended this school, and she was trying to get me enrolled at UGMS because of the bad rumors about this school. That failure, was the best failure to ever occur in my life. Love this school.

The education is ok....the discipline is horrible. this school allows lower income students of higher levels to bully and insult younger kids and their answer when a 6th grader sticks up gor themselves against an 8th grader is to give iSS to the kid being bullied. If your kid has to go here...expect them to deal with the dregs of killeen and not be protected by the teachers or admin.

My son attended EHMS for 3 years and my daughter is heading into the 7th grade. We have had nothing but positive experiences with the staff and students. My son became an honor roll student, played every sport offered, and excelled in band thanks to the dedication and positive encouragement of his dedicated teachers and peers. My daughter was lucky enough to get almost all the same teachers as my son for 6th grade, and she has blossomed until their tutelage as well. She has been encouraged to excel in band and will be joining athletics as well, as wanting to be a member of student council again. HUGE SHOUTOUT to Mr. Lewis (Band), Ms. Meyer (Math), Ms. Minor-Brown (English), Mr. Rothas (Science), and Mr. McDaniels (History). These teachers are some of the most dedicated, motivational, and nurturing teachers I have ever encountered.

My son is in 6th grade. He has been bullied at this school. The counselors had been aware of the troubles that my son has had. I even went to the school and spoke with the guidance counselor, and they said that they took care of the situation. They didn't do a good enough job. My son has been assaulted, and is verbally harassed at this school. the same boys are still bullying and verbally harassing my son. The teachers (I have only met two) DO NOT follow any childs 504 plans. My son has been struggling and this school is trying to let my son slip into the cracks. Well, they don't want to mess with this mom. I thought this school was one of the TOP schools, well this school just isn't good for special needs children. The special education department, they were supposed to do some tests that I had requested at the beginning of the school year, they still haven't done any of them. So I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone. I am a very disappointed parent, and they don't care about the students best interest. They just care about getting paid. There is a high lack of communication through this school. My son used to love going to school, but lately he has been crying and doesn't want to go to school because of the bullying and the verbal harassment. The APs are a waist of space. They don't do anything like they should.
