This School’s Reviews

1.0 Freshman

10/21/2024

This school SUCKS none of the teachers care about the students and the admin ONLY do things by the book and never try to help or anything. The food is bad like real bad, unless its the spicy nuggets or chicken patty thing but that's IT the beef is really fake and you can tell. The teachers always without fail give hard assignments and never take into account learning disabilities and their 504 program is horrible

Even though I’m not a rebel, my mother was. I actually met some of her teachers and to be honest, I don’t know why everyone is saying bad stuff about HHS, sure the fent problem makes it look bad but its still a good school in the end.
