I have really enjoyed my time at park east because it is like a small close nit community where support is offered often. The only thing I would like for park east to have is a larger range of Ap classes available.

My time at Park East over the past 4 years has been amazing. I've received continuous support from the wonderful staff and made excellent friends along the way. While at Park East, I was given various opportunities to further explore my interests, socialize, and preparation for the next few years after high school. I feel very safe at Park East and comfortable talking to faculty if I ever need anything.

Park East High School is truly one of a kind. It is a small school which makes it such a great home feeling environment. The teachers here are very supportive with the work and super understanding. What I love about Park East is all the fun activities we do outside of the learning atmosphere such as our ice skating trip we have every year, Hispanic culture month celebration, our Thanksgiving feast etc. I can truly say this feels like a second home to me and if I have any problems Park East will have my back.

Low standards for students and not a lot of social-emotional support especially if your child has an IEP. Poor communication, teachers are unresponsive and the 9th grade living environment teacher is mean and hurts selfesteem by telling students negative things about themselfs.

I am a Parent of a present Senior at Park East H.S. I honestly can say that CPE from the very moment we walked through those doors we received such a truly comfortable and welcoming introduction that it lay to rest so much anxiety for all of us. I was and I am still impressed with the staff at this...
