Henderson County High School has been an amazing experience for me. I enjoy all the activities and celebrations we have displaying our success. Parking is the worst part of my high school. We have to walk almost 15 minutes from the back parking lot to the school each morning.

Completely a waste of 4 years. I should have decided to go to another school in the vicinity. It is over crowded and all staff believe they can harass students.
