GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I would say the worst part about hernando would be the time to get to class. It would be hard having gym then having to go across campus to math and constantly be marked tardy. Other than that i loved hernando. the teachers were nice and i never had a problem with any students. Staff and faculty were always helpful when needed. If i had a child i would definitely have them go to hernando

The teachers at Hernando are very passionate about their students, the students inside the school also have a strong sense of community. The learning environment is also amazing and the school overall feels like a second home sometimes.

However, you (the student) must be willing to strive for excellence! This means: being respectful to yourself and others, c...
