Harper is a small public school where everyone knows everyone. You get to be involved in many more activities than you would at a larger school.

It is a very small town with commuting kids from all around towns. The classes are small, the campus is small but it is very inviting. The athletic program is very competitive and does well for such a small town. I never had any problems but when it comes to sports and academic competition within the school system theres always drama to be had. With such a small commmunity someone is always related and always politics to be played.
