One of the best parts were probably the teachers and coaches. One teacher was also the soccer coach and was really nice towards anyone he knew. The worst parts of my experience was trying to go to the bathroom. The bathrooms were pretty much always closed and locked and before they started locking the bathrooms there used to be a bunch of people in there hanging out. Even after they started locking the bathrooms there would still sometimes be lots of people in the bathrooms. Sometimes the people in the bathroom would vape. Also some bathrooms have broken doors or don't have doors at all. So some stalls you can't lock the door. I would like to see improvement in the bathrooms and improvement in making sure people in there aren't messing around or vaping.

I haven't been enrolled in the school for long but from what I have seen, the school is somewhat average. It provides proper education but to a mind-blowing standard. The classes are quite average and the school isn't that large.

Hampton High School is a pretty decent school. Hampton has the resources required to have a basic highschool education, but it's up to the students whether or not they use those resources.

As a parent and Alumni, I love Hampton High School. My son currently goes there and has had a wonderful first year. The support staff is great and helpful and his teachers have all been supportive.

Fat shamers, homophobic, isn't even legal, they'll discriminate If you send your kid there make sure they don't talk to the principal at all... they'll get suspended

Our student was in the IB program. Clearly, a fantastic curriculum based on critical thinking and advanced writing expectations. THE way to go if your child is undecided when looking at all the Academy options.

Hampton is continually receiving a bad rap from the community and others outside of the school for things that happened years ago or isolated incidents that happen at every school I've even taught for, including the Catholic ones.First, we're a family. That's why 96% of our seniors graduate on time....
