The best part about Hale County High School is how our teachers help us become college and career ready for our future and the worst part is that the school has a lot of renovations being done so students often have to move classrooms are we are also distracted by the constant noise of construction.

Overall, Hale County High School is a fairly good school; however, the school is entirely too outdated. In fact, the school needs countless renovations in classrooms, the gym, and other places that students go everyday. Also, the administration is, at times, entirely unprofessional.
