Hurricane High School is ok. Plain and simple. Our facilities are kind of old and need updating. Our school is incredibly non-diverse. We've had 2 lockdowns this year and that's not ok.

It is a good school. Teachers are generally good excluding a few. Some teachers are amazing, and really prepare students for college. Atmosphere is good, and is one of the newer facilities in the school district.
