WAY BETTER THAN NORTH PAULDING. North''s socioeconomic status is terrible, as well as overcrowding and favoritism within the county, which makes it much harder to fund and support the needs of East Paulding. East is truly an amazing school!! The staff and admin are so welcoming and genuine! My Mom went to both East Middle and East High, so It''s come full circle for me. The athletic department is highly skilled and talented in many areas. Thank you EPHS, I''M PROUD TO BE A RAIDER!!!!

I have a large family(7 kids). I have had 4 children graduate from EPHS and I have 2 currently attending. EPHS has an incredible faculty and awesome athletics. Their music programs are some of the best in the area. My children have participated in a variety of programs over the years, including marching band, football, soccer and baseball. I would highly recommend this school.
