As a student who attended two unconsecutive years of schooling at Highland Springs High School, I would say the education is very lax. The school culture is very minimal, but sports has always been our strong suit.

My experience at Highland Spring High School since my freshmen year has been ok. The school culture is fine. I am so far in 3 clubs (anime, crochet, & book club) this school year and I find them enjoyable and am able to connect with others. I've made memorable connections with some teachers and staff as well. Although there are some things my school can work on such as the fights but luckily, they don't happen too often. Overall, my experience at Highland Spring High School hasn't been all that bad.

I actually love my school. I'm in the Dual Enrollment Program, so I am getting alot of college curriculum done early. I do love that the school is like a family and our community is involved with sports. I just wished that we could get better food. The food isn't great, but I think that comes from the county.

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.
