  1. One of the positives about Eastern, as student's said at the Town Hall Meeting, is Eastern's diversity and our general acceptance of all people, genders, and sextualities.

    One of the negatives about Eastern is its cleanliness, or lack thereof. The classrooms are often dirty, and it is by no fault of the staff. I think that after each class session students should be made to clean up their classroom a bit before going on their way.

  3. I love how diverse Eastern is. We have students and teachers/administrators from all over the world contributing to our open atmosphere. This is one of the things, I think, that makes Eastern so attractive to other students coming from other schools.

    One thing Eastern struggles with is respect. While we have a diverse group of kids here, we also have a lot of trouble with people respecting the property and one another. If we could just get a handle on this, we'd be good to go.

  5. I think that you have to make a good things for the new students like freshman and others students from another school. And you have to be a positives concerns Eastern and others students.

  6. Positive: I like the diversity and the openness of the school. You don't need the greatest clothes or have to act "the same" as everyone else.

    Negative: First we're not that clean, and when the district starts cutting off supplies it always hits us first (the french fries, the paper).

  7. I've always liked how diverse the school is

    the only thing that school really needs to work on is the rules are way to cruel and unforgiving and makes this school look like a communist dictatorship

  8. make new stuff for the freshman or get positives for them

  9. Positive: Diversity and the oppertunity we have at this school such as IB classes.

    Negative: The freshmen that thinks since they are in high school can do whatever they want. NO YOU CAN NOT! Plus the rules here are a little more strict then other schools. It's relaxing to listen to music "During Lunch" with all the stress from my AP and IB classes. I can't see why I don't have a right to listen to music during lunch since it's pretty much a leisure time. Most of us work better after relaxing with music during lunch. Do not blame me if my grades slip... your the ones who always put me on the edge. We should have a choice to listen to our music during lunch. --Nate C.

  10. As a parent, I feel that the diversity, the IB, and the wonderfully talented staff is what drew me to send my child to Eastern as a school of choice. I think that these things should be advertised more.

    The negative for me is the disrespect of some of the kids and the lack of choices to remove them from the building. I feel that too much time is spent on approx 15-20 kids in each grade level and that takes away from the kids who want to be at school.

  12. One good thing about Eastern is that everyone expect who other people are and they don't make fun of them. One bad thing is that we aren't having an achiviment in learning but we look like we are some what improving.

  13. Positive: the diversity that we have at Eastern and the different programs offered.
    Negative: the school is often dirty, and thats not the staffs problem its the students not caring and thinking someone will always be there to clean up after them.

  14. Eastern is very diverse! And i like that people dont just stick to one "clique". I have many friends from many different backgrounds and with many different life styles.

    On the other hand Eastern does have some kids who just dont care... they arent coming to class on time, when the are in class they're disruptive. Which kind of rueins things for kids that are ALWAYS on time, and always doing there work.

  15. - I think that the best thing i like about eastern is the new tardy policie. Only because of the t.v that shows you how much time you have and the whole social room thing. because people are not trying to get suspended for 3 days. And as for the challenges, i don't have one at the moment..

  16. I got a negative, why do i come to skool and smeel weed all the time? It's either in the stairwell or on a kids clothes. Cant the kid be search by an officer because of probable cause?
    On a positiver note i love the chairs in this class, we need a set for all classrooms XD

  17. one good is that people are diverse a bad thing is that some of the people keep on messing up the school making it look all nasty and dirty.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Postive: Eastern accepts people no matter the color of the skin or language spoken. I also like that most of the people are outspoken.

    Negative: The bathrooms are always dirty because of the kids that like to skip in the bathroom and vandalize it. The kids that think skipping school all the time is cool but its not, its a really stupid thing because it could affect your future in the long run.

    ReplyDelete
  19. POSITIVE: The diversity and all the options to better our future such as the IB and AP programs ect...


    NEGATIVE: The complaining is super annoying. If you want something done then you need to figure out a different way to see that things change.

  23. >A postive about Eastern is the friendliness here and the opportunity that every student has to succeed.

    >A negative about Eastern is that many students do not take advantage of these opportuinities and as a result they do not succeed.

  24. positive: make something new!!!
    negative:..school bathrooms!!!!!

  25. i think we should do the "town hall meeting" more often, because i really liked them, i also think that it's a nice way to get the teachers to hear what the students have to say.

  26. Positive: Diversity

    Negative: The sckool isn't so sanitary!

  27. I think the postive would have to be even though I'm not a junior I enjoyed the pizza at the mme after party and the attendance for mme that was pretty good.

    something the eastern needs to work is the policies I think that they should be comprimisable. And they should compromise with the students because if you dont let them have freedom they will just end up breaking the rules anyway.

  28. I think that one of the postive was possibly making ayp thats a good thing.

    something we need to work on policies if students cant compromise with them how do you expect them to abide by them so a little bit of freedom if you will.

  29. positive:Eastern is very open to other diversitys,

    Negative: the school is being to strick causing more issues for the students before the bell rings for school teachers want to take ur phone away or tell you to go outside to talk.
    The cell phone, Ipod thing has gone way out of hands. The school is making more and more rules, at lunch were told to go to the court yard to talk on the phone but then were not allowed out there...... that makes no sense the teachers need to think about the students prespective not themselfes....

  30. Positive: The Diversity;

    Negative: The schools too strict.

  31. yes, bribing them is a good way to make them come, but the schools need to come up with a better way of helping seniors (or those who have already passed there senior year and were unable to graduate) a better way of getting those students caught back up to where they need to be. AYP is a good thing to have but these schools have a little bit bigger problems that are not being addressed correctly.

  33. I think a postive of this school is all the spirit we have for our school, I mean were doing amazing in basketball right now . Yay! :), but we always stand by our team when were not doing so great ( like football ) and thats what I love about this school . That is one thing I will truly miss.

    One thing we need to work on is not having people skip and chill in the hallways , I mean seriously if I was gona skip class/ school I would go home , theres no point in staying there.

  34. one of the positives are the activitys we are able to do in side some of the classes that make them more exciting.
    one of the negatives are the classes that are dull an make the student want to avoid going to that class.
    some classes allow you to have fun while others take it away but all classes should find a place in the middle

  35. I think the postive about Eastern would be Town Hall meeting. The negavite is that the school is not clean and we don't have good foods.

  39. Positive:The Diverisity is really good.

    Negitive: We should be able to wear our hats..its not like it stops us from learning or anything..And we should be able to text in class as long as our phones are on vibrate..Also we should be able to listen to music because its a proven fact that students get work done faster by listening to music. And the school needs to ALOT more cleaner..

  41. Positive- Eastern has some really great teachers. A lot of them are really dedicated and put in after school time and participate in school activities. I have about ten favorite teachers and I feel like the education I receive under them is just as good, if not better than the education some kids pay lots of money for.

    Negative- Nobody cares about their school anymore. There's no school spirit and kids don't play sports or participate in extra-curriculars anymore. The student body is, in general, pitifully apathetic, which is why we've failed to make AYP in the past.

  43. positive-most diverse school in the area, if not the state.

  44. The good~ There are great teachers and a strong curriculum.

    The bad~ The lack of discipline negates all the good intention.
    There are too many students who have no respect and the rules are not being enforced properly.
    I have seen students smoking and littering every time I'm on school grounds. Both my children have suffered from distractions caused by other students who are constantly being disruptive.The majority of good students fall on the wayside because the students with a lack of direction are not given appropriate consequences.

  46. One positive of Eastern is that the teachers work with you to help you be able to pass the class. One negative thing about Eastern is the cleanliness and the way they spend there money on certain things. [TVs]
