What do you love about Eastern Christian School?
I love how all the staff cares for me and is invested in my success.

Describe one of your favorite teachers and tell why he/she is a favorite.
My favorite teacher and one of my best friends is Mr. Zacharias. He was initially my math tutor in middle school and since then we’ve shared many fun conversations and he’s more or less been a mentor figure to me. Aside from that, he is a better friend than I could have ever asked for.

In what ways have you grown in your faith as a result of your experience at Eastern Christian School?
My time at EC has helped reinforce my belief that despite everything, there is still good in the world.

What would you say to a prospective student considering joining Eastern Christian School?
Eastern Christian High School is  definitely a unique experience that will resonate with you. I’m grateful to this school for a memorable 13 years!
