The school was great there were a lot of nice teachers who simply wanted the best for their students even created so sort of teacher and student bond with them during our time as students.

best parts about harmony is how college prepared they make you to be, like you HAVE to be accepted into a college to graduate
2/7/2024
School is dirty, a lot of things are unorganized, no senior activities, school is very unsafe, hard to exit the school from student parking, rude front office people, people taking other students parking spots. Forcing students to put away hoodies but not fixing the actual problems or threats, also forcing students to put away backpacks with so little time to get to class and their locker while also doing tardy sweeps.
