Hampton is a good school for lower level students. Going to this school I always felt I was never helped to get better because I was already average, the focus was always on the below average students. Not that this is a bad thing, it just brings the highest potential of the students lower than many other schools. This school offers 2 AP courses with no intent in having more. The push to make good students better is nonexistent.
