My experience at Highland Springs High School has been great. Most teachers as well as administrators and counselors genuinely want all of the students to succeed. There are many available resources you can access at Highland Springs that help you navigate your high school experience as well as things after high school.

For me, Highland Springs was an "alright" establishment to gain an education. I am an engineering student, in the Center for Engineering. So, I was given separate teachers from the rest of the school. But my time at the school was something I am proud of and would recommend.
5/6/2024
I would say that the worst parts about my highs school experience is that both my parents and I were contacted about important things super late, lack of diversity, and being forced into school groups with slackers. The best part about my time here is that it's almost over. I think this school needs a complete change of diversity and having their ducks in a row.

As with any school rating, You must rate based on all aspects of schools performance. It is a great new school and the staff members are dedicated to helping the students succeed in every way possible. Great Job. Go Springers.

The school could do some changes. Some teachers are passionate on teaching their students even if their having a bad day but other teachers just teach to get paid. The young adults should have a say on what goes on in their school. HSHS IS OVER CROWDED!! Hallways are always packed, students only get...

Its WAY overcrowded. I could barely get to my 3rd period. Theres always fights and we are always on restricted movement. All the kids are not even worried about education. They just care about popularity. The only good things about that school is the tech centers, sports, and clubs.
