(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - As a parent of two children at East, I can see a major improvement in the efforts of the teachers and students. I support East and do feel that this school will do well in the future. I give the credit to the Superintendent for making the necessary changes that were needed to get this school moving upward. The new principal and her staff are doing a great job. Keep up the good work East. I'm rooting for ya!!!
