My experience at Hackett High School has been made better by the staff who make a genuine effort to connect with their students. Having gone to many other schools Hackett has been by far one of the best environments I have had the privilege of being a part of. This school has given me an opportunity to grow as a person and also to advance my education and get a head-start in college. I have really appreciated being a part of such a well organized and close knit community that is this school.

Hackett High school is your typical small town school. The entire community loves the school and the sports but there's something special going on inside those buildings of Hackett Schools. There are kids with very little opportunities who are given the tools to succeed in life. My High School experience has set me up for success in life and I believe that's the main goal.

While the teachers are mostly good, and the class sizes are small, the overall experience was not good. The school has bullying problems that go unnoticed, the counselor is corrupt, and the academic courses are limited. I do not feel very well prepared for college.

Hackett is a terrific little school. My niece started here in the middle of the year of second grade and Ms.Collier has been wonderful! She is a great, loving,and very caring teacher. Im so glad that my children attend this school. Mr.Kennedy we will miss you.

This school degrades anyone who isn't born and raised there, a member in my family attended this school and made better grades than most of these in-bread jokes but yet when it came to the awards ceremony he didn't receive a single award and he even had a cord but yet no award to help back it up. It...

The education here is a joke and the students aren't that accepting of new students. Still hasn't caught up with the rest of the modern world.
