Had a great experience at Harmony. The student to Teacher ratio is not large and teachers get to spend more time with students. They also do home visit which many schools do not do. They provide help in and outside of school. They get parents involved with parent/teachers conference which my parent loved.

I have gone to Harmony High School from freshman year all the way to my senior year. Through high school I have nothing but positive things to say about Harmony High school. They have taught me to be a hard worker and to persevere. The staff and administration have provided amazing support and encouragement through my high school years.

Classes are small so more 1 on 1 time with the teachers. Academics are well, but some teachers are not as excelled as others. Coaches are teachers and they are lazy at times. Ag is a great extracurricular class. The art teacher is amazing.

I had a terrible senior year being picked on and bullied by s...
