The best part of my experience at Harris County High School is that they have really good teachers and you will always be able to ask anyone where something is at are if you have any questions. The worst experience is that it is a really big school and you might get lost. They have amazing sports and other extra Curricular activities. The overall culture is amazing and I really love it. I don't think anything really needs to change except the food really I feel like there could be a little bit better of food and more food.

My overall experience at HHS has been ups and downs, but throughout all of it I felt that I had good teachers around to help, school spirit that lit the football stands, and friends who I will share forever memories with.

I think the biggest thing i'd like to see change is to increase the size of campus. It felt very cramped at points and we needed more space. Other than that, I think HCHS had good teachers and good extracurricular opportunities.

Harris County High School is a great school and definitely prepares you for college. Other than my freshman year I had an amazing time thanks to the theater department and some excellent teachers such as Mrs. Longshore, Mrs. Hall, and Mrs. Kennedy. The councilors are great other than the Eleventh Gr...

Harris County is an amazing school. Love the theater department Mrs. Longshore is simply the best. Not a fan of the principle but we try not to deal with him as he has a very unique leadership style that does not encourage the students in a positive manner. With that said we moved here for the schoo...

6th year with a child at HCHS, we are not happy at all! Other previous statements below mentioned that the teachers take complaints made about them out on your student! That is a FACT, it happens!! Not fair, but it does and the principal does nothing about it. Upper administration is a good old boy...

Harris County High has been great for my son. This is his first year of high school (9th grade) as well as this is a new school for him. He loves it and so do we.
