I also attended East for my entire high school career. Although I was not interested in their sports teams, it was very good at its main purpose as a scholarly institution. To say that your child will not achieve any success at East is rather sophomoric, in that it ultimately depends on the pupil in question's drive fulfill accomplishment. In general, the Central Bucks School District provides a considerable array of tools that allow students to mature socially and academically. However, recent cuts to the art department, (namely the photo lab), have severely hindered art school-bound students in presenting well-rounded portfolios. Bottom line, it's a great school, but if art or athletics are your (or your child's) passion, consider private leagues/classes as extra-curricular activities.

I attended East for 3 years. I can honestly say it was the biggest waste of time. For starters the school has this crazy idea that they have a good sports program. This is absolutely false. The sports are a joke and the coaching is an even bigger joke. East hasn't ever been truly 'successful in any sport, nor have they had any major athletes come out of there. Despite all this they publicize that they have a good sports program. I think the programs history can tell you that it is truly a joke, and it's very political, thus the results are what they are. As far as the teachers go, it really depends on what teachers you get for your classes. I would not recommend sending your child to this school, they will not achieve any success at East!

My son is finishing up his senior year at East. Overall I think the quality of the teachers and administration are excellent and they challenge the students to do their best. They encourage involvement in extracurricular activities and community service. I believe he's grown a lot in school and acquired excellent preparation for college.

Teachers amazing! I have a son who I considered high risk for behavioral problems. The teachers have banded together to not only give him a top notch education, but they have also taken an interest in what makes my son tick. He is thriving and loves the school. Great parent interaction!
