We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I attended HPHS for all four years of high school, and my experience there with the school, staff and students was great. The teachers are extremely helpful and care about the students. The administration changed many times while I was attending HPHS but the teachers made sure that it did not affect our performance in school.
