My four years at Hickory High were great. I was able to be a member of the cheerleading squad for 3 years and I enjoyed getting to meet the lifelong friends I have. A high school friend of mine and myself are currently both enrolled in college together and plan on rooming together next year.

My experience as a student at Hickory High was good, the support of some teachers was really impressive. Those teacher would motivate and help you be a better person and successful in class.

these last four years have made me feel at home. The teachers and staff always giving me a warm welcome as I set foot in my highschool. The teachers giving their all to help a student pass or understand a course. Coaches never favorited any athletes and always treated everyone equally with respect. One thing I would change is the salad bar they got rid of my freshmen year. It was a very healthy option for students to eat during lunch and should come back for good nutrition for the students.

2012-2013 was a new year for Hickory High! The new administrative team, faculty and staff restructured and reorganized the entire school! The 2013-14-school environment is structured to support a rigorous academic program, state champion athletic program and the some of the counties finest art initi...

Excellent teachers will only be found in the honors classes - the new principal seems to only be after his "personal" agenda. The students never see him at school. Leadership seems to magnify the students with minor homework/dress issues and overlook drugs and bullies. Academic programs and clubs ar...
