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.

4.0 Senior

I've had pleasant experiences in my science and social studies classes, such as physics and AP psych, however in general, the academics at the school could use improvement, and more experienced teachers. Sports funding could improve, as well as facilities such as the classrooms, bathrooms, and library/media center.

Attending East Bay was a pleasant experience. The school is very diverse and includes all students to get involved.
3.0 Junior

I have enjoyed my time at East bay, but there are definitely improvements to be made. Many students want to do well, while a lot of others don't. It becomes frustrating when staff and teachers care more about the students who don't care, rather than the students who do care.

I have a daughter who is a senior now and another daughter who graduated from East Bay. The staff is lazy. Whenever I go to the office or call inexperienced students try and help while administrators sit and eat continuously. Teachers often get mad when students ask questions or they roll their eyes...
