I enjoyed Hiawatha High School because of the "small town" size of the school. I did not get overwhelmed or lost in this school. Everyone seems to know each other.

Attending Hiawatha Senior High has given me the opportunity to expand my learning in many ways. In my junior and senior year I was able to take additional courses in areas of my interest. The Hiawatha school district has always tried to go above and beyond the necessary academics to ensure that their students are receiving the best. I love the small class sizes and the enormous opportunities the school district provides for the students.

The administration and rules are ridiculous. I felt targeted by them. All my teachers were great and the students were welcoming.
