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.

My overall experience with Easton Area High School was life changing. I entered the school as a shy student and soon was able to find my place within the four incredible years I've experienced. The best parts of my experience was the teachers and art classes I've had or taken. The worst part of my experience were the difficult classes I had taken.

I do believe that EAHS is a good school. There are many great opportunities for students here from sports to music to theater to academics. I am glad to be attending this school, but I think there are many things they need to improve on. The administration makes the strangest decisions, and I feel like there is a new big fight at least twice a month.

I am happy with my overall high school experience although I do wish they had more opportunities to apply for scholarships to help students who are looking to attend college after graduation. I am a senior and plan to go to a four year university but am struggling to figure out how to pay for it without ending up with thousands of dollars in student loans. On the other hand what I love about my high school is the faculty. My teachers have been instrumental in helping me maintain a 4.0 GPA through their amazing instruction and guidance along the way. I am thankful for their support and availability whenever I need a little extra help. I feel they truly do care about their students.

My family is finally done with EAHS. My son just graduated -- barely. My daughter was a special education student. As such, there were very few resources for her. One of the few things she benefitted from was Art for Relaxation, provided by Ms. Symia and Communities in Schools. At some point, it was...
