I was in orchestra all four years, and can confidently say that we have a wonderful music program. I hope that in the future this school is able to receive more funding for the marching band specifically, because we could use some new/refurbished mallet instruments.

I love the diversity of the school. The biggest downfall was the pandemic that started during my freshman year. It taught me to be more self-reliant. Overall, the teachers are kind and there to support the students and the rest of the staff and faculty really care about the students succeeding.

We have had a wonderful experience at Hamden High- it's truly a hidden gem. Our son transitioned from a very small, private school to this high school, and he has been so happy here. The academics are terrific, at least in the high level classes. The teachers have been engaging, supportive and accom...
