I believe that the best thing about Hart High School was the community and how everyone came together to support teams, clubs, etc. The only bad thing about that is that there is a lack of focus on the actual education the school is providing.

I would like to see a change in more clubs for people. Other than that the amount of resources available for students are quite reasonable and easy to access through counselors and teachers. Maybe a better treatment to teachers and staff.

My daughter is in the Show Choir at Hart, and she the training she is getting is phenomenal. They sing with a live band, they dance with professional choreographers, they even have their own costumer! Mrs. Hart is a jewel. We love this school for the choir program!
