Easley High School is a public high school in Easley, South Carolina. The largest high school in Pickens County, it educates people in the eastern area of the county. Its two major sports rivals are the Pickens High School Blue Flame and the Wren High School Hurricanes. The Easley-Wren rivalry has grown in comparison to the Easley-Pickens rivalry, especially in non-football sports, because Easley and Wren share membership in region 1-AAAA, even though the Easley-Pickens football game remains the chief rivalry.
Famous quotes containing the words high and/or school:
“Life! Life! Don’t let us go to life for our fulfilment or our experience. It is a thing narrowed by circumstances, incoherent in its utterance, and without that fine correspondence of form and spirit which is the only thing that can satisfy the artistic and critical temperament. It makes us pay too high a price for its wares, and we purchase the meanest of its secrets at a cost that is monstrous and infinite.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“A sure proportion of rogue and dunce finds its way into every school and requires a cruel share of time, and the gentle teacher, who wished to be a Providence to youth, is grown a martinet, sore with suspicions; knows as much vice as the judge of a police court, and his love of learning is lost in the routine of grammars and books of elements.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
