GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

East Ridge High School is overall an enjoyable school experience. While there are some teachers that are worse than others, certain teachers, such as Mrs Coley who teaches AP Biology, are exceptional at teaching and making subjects fun. However, there is lack of mental health departments and administrators do not listen to students as much as they really could.

School has been good in many aspects like student sections where we all come together as a school to celebrate a game or event. Overall the facilities and administration isn't the best and can be disappointing at times.

My experience with East Ridge High School has been well I had many opportunities to meet new people and I think we have more freedom like being able to use our devices and what we wear more than other high schools around Florida or the United States. Although all of that there have been a lot of times where there were teacher shortages. I feel like the cafeteria food is inconsistent and the lines can be extremely long resulting in not enough time for everyone to eat. My sports experience was pretty well honestly it all depends on how much your sport wins and its popularity. Overall my experience at East Ridge Highschool was pretty good.

My student attended ERHS for 11th & 12th grades. We had a good experience and my child graduated suma cum laude. My biggest issue with the school is overcrowding, which affects the campus and bussing. The county needs a new high school for homes in southern Clermont

Most teachers are not qualified whatsoever and overall, this school is a mess. They can’t get their kids together and is probably one of the most disorganized schools I’ve been to. I cannot wait to leave.

This school is terrible. I still currently go here and the administration is beyond horrible. As well as the teachers who barely care or help their students. Fights happen at least every week and one time there was a fight that consisted of 10 people. Guns and bullet shells were found last school ye...
