Hampton High School was a great experience for me. The small class sizes really allowed the teachers to focus on each students needs. They helped me with all of my college application questions

My experience with Hampton Highschool has been a major turning point in my life. The students and teachers have impacted and shaped the person I am becoming today. Sports such as basketball and softball hold a special place in my heart, although at times I don't feel I meet the sports standards. It caused me to lose confidence in myself for a long time, but I'm beginning to be me again. Some of my past coaches tore me down and belittled me. This year though we've gained new coaching staff who push me to achieve my goals. I feel academically I have achieved so much especially with the assistance of teachers who wanted to see their students thrive. I strive to be the best I can be and they help me to achieve my goals. They have also made me realize, although that there is no such thing as perfection and that I don't have to be, I can still strive to get as close as possible.

I love Hampton High because of the programs they provide such as Auto Cad and FFA, which provides a more familiar environment for me as a student.

I went to hampton for 3 years and I was not impressed, some of the teachers didn't care if you failed or not, I even had one teacher tell the class that she don't care if they fail it dont hurt her at all. Thats Not How Teachers Are Suppose To Act!!! Its their job to push people to do good in school...
