Its a really safe and good school for kids, they take extra curricula's very seriously like sports and band, counsellors are great to they can help you navigate your way into what you want to become in your future and are there if you have a problem

My experience has been good at Hickory Ridge overall. The best parts for me is when needing help. The teachers and my counselor were really helpful. A bad part was having a short lunch. Another bad part was hearing about fights that happened. First I would like to see my school do more to prevent fights. Second to have longer lunches. Third to have better communication between the parents and faculty members.

Hickory ridge high school is a strong academic and social school. It has great teachers but doesn't have the best track record when it comes to sports. In terms of medical related stuff our school is lacking since our school focuses predominantly on business and tech.

Dont based your decision on the scores above as you see they rank 8 in every category with exception of student improvement, at the same time, all stude...

This school felt like a babysitting center for teenagers. The students' behavior is often reckless and uncontrolled, assisted by careless teachers. Some teachers are great, but 1/2 aren't. I wouldn't recommend this school if you're looking for somewhere for your child to flourish academically. Fight...
