We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Although its location fights against it, this school does pretty well in most areas. It has its strong points and its weak ones.

Great experience. Freshman campus is old and run down and 10-12 building it a little prison like but education wise it has been great.

To start with the best parts of the school first would be the push by the principle to make the school a safer and more caring place. with weekly webinars promoting mental health awareness and positivity. The teachers I have had have all been relativly good a few of them have been great to have and very helpful with understanding the class and subjects. now to start with the bad, most of it is just the student body. with bathrooms being places where students seem to vape every passing time. not to mention when they decide to just break off the soap despensers or clog the urinals and toilets. to say the least the bathrooms are a horrible place to be.

I was provided with a outstanding education here. I continued on earning a post graduate degree. The opportunity is there if students want it.

I had a great experience at Howell High School. I had some really awesome teachers who not only cared about me as a student but as a person. This school is very big and I love how many different class options were available. I would definitely recommend this school to others!
