[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Eastern can be tougher for avg kids not Academically driven. There are already clicks roaming the halls with no intention of graduating. If you kids can avoid them and be ignored by them they will do great. If they get involved there is risk. All schools have kids like that, eastern has more than most. Mom of two middle class kids who got two different results there. My one boy is having a lot of problems in HS with the crowd he met at eastern. He was never going to be a good student, but is dabbling in things that have long ranging damage as a 10th grader. Daughter is in a great college assuming it opens back up in the fall [/quote]

Sounds like parenting is the key to addressing this. The world is full of temptations that can derail a student. Even at home, you may allow negative influences to enter through the media your child consumes. It is natural that they will gravitate toward things that match their inner compass. As a parent, if you instill the correct values in your child, their inner compass will steer them away from cliques aimlessly roaming a middle school’s hallways. Clearly most parents at Eastern managed to do this. I have faith in OP.[/quote]
