This school is honestly amazing, I just wish the food was a little better. Other than that, this school is about perfect. The teachers are nice and will extend the due dates if you have a reason. Overall just a great school.

Hall-Dale is great if you know exactly what you want and can guide yourself through it all. If you need help or are unsure of what to do next however, this may not be what you're looking for. The grading system undergoes frequent changes and differentiation in grading policies make it very hard to understand what's happening from class to class. The athletics and arts programs are great, but the academics leave something to be desired.

This school is filled with good teachers. They work hard, but the grading system can be improved. It goes from 1(worst) to 4(best). Additionally, the coursework is 'student paced' which means that nothing is docked points for being overdue. This helps your grade while you are in highschool, but, I do not feel like it adequately prepares students for the grading system at college. It is a rude awakening for time management.
