    "As a student can only say that this school has it's problems but what school doesn't .. I believe that Erwin gets a lot of Negative things thrown at it when really the school has improved greatly. The freshman academy isn't easy but it only increases a students drive to succeed. Thats what happened with me. I struggled last year as a Freshman but Now as a sophmore I have a stronger drive more then i ever have before and thats due to not only being in Career Academy but having excellent Teachers. This school deserves so much more credit because at least they are trying. Drop outs have decreased in the last year and test scores went up. NOBODY should judge Erwin unless they are a student. I have respect for you parents who dont like erwin i just simply disagree. Everyone has a different experience, Keep an open mind"

    "I have a daughter getting ready to graduate this year from Clyde A Erwin HS. This school has near complete disregard and respect for the students and families. I can't tell you the name of the principal or other key personnel at this school because you simply don't see or hear from them. My daughter struggled so much at this school and went through some tough times, and even went to a guidance counselor at one point (at my request). But rather than try to help her (and her parents and siblings) cope with whatever she was going through and our needs, I was told these matters were confidential even though my daughter was a minor. I was never given any insight at all nor referrals on where to turn. She consistently scored poorly and made poor grades at this school. Teachers and personnel rarely returned phone calls or emails."

    "My child is a freshman at Erwin High School. He attended a local private school for 8 years. Because of his football desire, he had to attend public school in order to participate in that sport. Although this school had received negative press in the past, I went into this with a fresh perspective of the freshman academy that was here. My son has done great! He has participated not only in football but also wrestling and track. He is in honor classes and has done fantastic. The teachers are as involved with you as you want them to be. I have all of his teachers on a group email and get weekly progress reports from them if asked. My son has been completely happy about us allowing him to attend public school even though we had reservations. Erwin has been great!"

    "My child is getting ready to graduate from Clyde A Erwin High School. I am thankful I don't have another child to endure a family-unfriendly environment, uncaring & cold administrators, disorganization, and overall a school that is designed to set children up for failure. The overcrowding, chaos, lack of the ability for parents to collaborate, and poor leadership are perhaps only a few things that contribute to this school's poor academic achievements. My suggestion is for the administration and faculty at this school to learn and implement one of the basic foundations of school success: communicate with parents now and then and realize that just because these are high school students they are still children with parents who would like to know something about their children's school experiences now and then."

    "I graduated from this high school in 2004 with a 3.8 GPA & I now attend a state university. Since beginning college, I have come to realize that Erwin High did not at all prepare me for college. When I arrived at college, I was immediately placed in a remedial math class and I was also informed that my score on the writing placement test was just barely high enough to disqualify me for the remedial writing class. I am consistently amazed with the lack of basic knowledge that Erwin failed to provide me with in comparison to graduates of other NC high schools."
