It is an average school in an average town lacking the proper resources, funding, and adequate administration.

I am a freshman at Hazlehurst High school and I feel like it's a good school, but it could be some change to make it better. I believe the teachers should have more and better attitudes instead of coming to the school like they don't want to be there. I also believe that we should receive books to help us out with homework in case we don't know how to do it as well as study for test, quizzes, and etc.

I liked that everyone was able to learn in different ways that just one way and how everyone help us to become better and they should have more activities and clubs and more educational trips to different colleges so that they want be confined to just one or two schools.
