Once-struggling East Side school hits new heights
Eastern Heights Elementary is beating the odds by paying acute attention to each of its students and their needs. Its efforts have paid off with higher test scores and a state award. ... Ropella said part of the school's success can be attributed to its program for 3- and 4-year-olds. At a time when experts say early childhood education is key to helping children who live in poverty catch up to other students, 36 pre-kindergarten students are attending Eastern Heights all day, every day.
