I am very happy with the culture and the community at Heyworth. However, I feel like the academics are lacking. I wish that we had more challenging classes, such as AP classes, advanced classes, and dual credit classes. The teachers are very caring, but some are not hard workers, which greatly impacts the students and their values around their learning.
