I liked the academics, at least in a secular sense. Jewish classes could use some work. Sports normally was pretty good, but there was none this year for Covid. Not a lot of school spirit or fun activities. The way they administer tests need to change.

I had a very good experience at HAFTR High School. I have been a student at HAFTR since I was three years old and I have always loved the school. The academics are great and I participate in multiple clubs and teams that all students are passionate about.
