Open Quote This school definitely has it's challenges. Some students come to school ill prepared to learn (unwashed clothing, no food, uncertainty about from where the next meal will be, etc.) Teachers are given what they can to be successful, but that does not take away from the passion that the teachers have for their craft, and their children. Eastern Hills is a work in progress, full of dedicated students and teachers who care about education. Close Quote
