As with all schools, you run the risk of something not turning out well at the hand of an inexperienced student, but if you're just looking for a trim this place can do just fine. I've had some of the MOST relaxing head massages here - they seem to go on forever! Stylists are friendly, and I've never found it to be too crowded. Their newish building has lots of space, and natural light, which gives a somewhat high-class vibe to an otherwise not-so-classy establishment. Often hard to get a walk-in appointment (at least, the few times I've tried to do it). Probably best to call ahead.

Mind you it's been media blasted and the steel has been in the raw for 5 months now. Magically it was done the following day. Not only did they cerakote my custom barreled action and various components, they cerakoted about 4" of my bore from muzzle end and much of the chamber as possible and stripped my $300 scope rings. I did receive a bunch of stickers though for what that's worth.

I hope the staff and students at Appleton East realize what a special school they have here…read more Although I was never lucky enough to be raised in Appleton so I could attend this school, I was lucky enough to complete observation hours and student teaching here. Even though I can't offer a student perspective, I can still sing the praises of this school. What makes this school SO incredible is the sense of community. Everyone at East is proud to be a Patriot and everyone supports each other. For example, there are often different groups (sports teams, clubs, etc) who raise money for a certain charitable cause by selling t-shirts. Without fail, both staff and students will not fail to support that charitable cause by purchasing shirts. Solidarity is a word that comes to mind when I think of Appleton East. Everyone stands together and supports each other. If there is a problem, then it will not go ignored. For example, there have been meetings open to everyone to discuss bullying and there was a Words Hurt campaign where all students got involved. A very helpful way that teachers have gotten to know students better is through advisory classes where students are able to meet with the same advisory class and teacher two mornings a week for all four years. That is really a special thing and shows that the school prioritizes the student. Through advisory, students get another resource and advocate in their advisory teacher. One thing that makes East stick out a lot to me is how the school embraces technology. Every morning, students read news announcements, which is televised and broadcast to every classroom in the school. The kids do a great job with it, and it's an excellent tool for establishing a morning routine. Sometimes there are even commercials for different events, which are also student-created. Overall, it's clear that Appleton East High School is a special place where teachers truly care about their students not only in terms of their formal education, but also in terms of their entire being. Go Patriots!
