Hillside is a great school there are many schools in Durham but hillside is the top one because they have many programs for black and brown kids and the teachers really care about their students and we all know that doesn't happen often so that is why hillside is good

From my experience, Hillside is just a plain and regular school that happens to be a bit more dangerous than the next. But despite the gun violence and few unhelpful administrators, I've met amazing teachers and peers there. I would like to see better resources given to my school.

I had a good experience at Hillside. Enjoyed being apart of the BFA academy and the opportunity to have an internship. Loved the sports: Football games were great. I also love being in Theta and the opportunities to take part in community service
