My overall experience with the Hialeah Miami Lakes, senior high school is that is very welcoming to every different race. If you're a Spanish speaker, English speaker, French speaker or patois speaker there will be always someone there to help you throughout the school year so you won't have problems trying to get around and there will be always a teacher there to appoint you on the right track of graduating and doing well throughout the school year up until graduation.

I love being a hialeah high student. I feel like HHS offers a lot to the students and is a great school. We pride ourselves in our academics and school spirit. There is never a boring day at hialeah high as we try our best to engage with the students. I think hialeah high has aspects that could be improved such as the our schools maintenance as there are places in the school that need more care but overall it is a great place to be.

This school has done a complete 180, they have a new principal, and the administration has been putting the kids first. The teachers care so much about the students and are there for them. Overall, great improvements seen for the social emotional well being, especially for magnet students.
