I felt an amazing community there as I felt I was surrounded by people like me. I have a couple memorable teachers from there that I still think about to this day and make me remember why I continue to study. I had some communication issues with some faculty as I couldn't get a hold of them. I'm glad I had the opportunity to be involved in a club that felt authentically like me.

Class of 2013 here! My advice is to take advantage of all the amazing programs at HGHS. I'm so proud of my old school and I'm not surprised HGHS gets top rankings every year. I actually felt prepared for college and THAT IS A BIG DEAL for STEM majors because professors have high expectations of you...
