Their lunch portions are small. They are very strict they make students put their phone away and take attendance by how many kids have phones in the holder on the wall. And if you’re caught with any type of Bluetooth device whether that be AirPods or any type of headphones or smartwatches. They are confiscated. And your parent will have to come pick them up. There are lots of issues at this school. May I mention they use this system called go guardian and it blocks everything and anything. Teachers may close down any tabs, set a tab limit example you’re only allowed to have 3 tabs open at all times. They even can lock down your computer. If you skip class you will get detention. If you have bad grades detention, too many absences detention. The key to how everything works at this school is giving you consequences in some way. Now don’t get me wrong the teachers at this school are so nice!! But the admin are not and I know it’s their job to be harsh and give consequences but it’s really bad. I wouldn’t recommend.

EHS has more diversity than the neighboring high school in Spring Creek. It is a school with solid teachers who have a lot of experience. EHS was established in 1895, so it's packed with tradition and beautifully remodeled old, brick buildings. The school also offers many AP, online, and college courses. As a discerning parent, I feel that my child is in good hands at EHS.

Elko High School is a failure making machine with very few good teachers. Most teachers belittle students yell in class and give very little instruction. The only kids who do well, would do well no matter what the circumstances. I wish that someone would come and find out exactly how bad this school is.
