Hereford is definitely a school that cares about your success. Although the lack of diversity has caused Hereford to differ from other bcps schools, Hereford brings great opportunity for the students allowing them to strive in every way possible through clubs, sports, and academics.

I think the counseling department could do a better job at helping kids when asked for it. They should checked up on students that have come to them consistently. Also, they should make counseling meetings mandatory.

I was sent to an administration office when I should have been in clas...
