The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students.

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.

I attended Hardy from 7th-12th and over those years every thing declined. I miss how it was ran back in middle school.

I have been at this school since before it was a mastery school when it was still at the old building. The progress that has been made too make this school more bearable is astonishing. From having the strictest dress code know to man to being able too just have the correct color pants and uniform shirt. Now there still are some things that need to be changed... I feel like the school is gonna prosper.

Very good school. They basically prepare you for college. Once you get to 10th grade they prepare you for interviews and internships, 11th they introduce you to college trade school and the army, by 12th grade your ready to apply for college and they help you through every step of the way. They also have college rep visits and the army to come talk to you.

I feel that the school could be a better school, if it were cleaned of the current staff. Beginning w/ CEO, principal(s), NTA's and other internal officials. Excluding Teachers. Same people w/same ideas. Nothing new!!
