I attended Harding Senior High school as a junior. The teachers do not really care if you succeed and the students are not involved. There is no sense of community. There are a decent amount of facilities.

I think of Harding senior high school as a very well public school. Harding has academic programs that will suit/fit your child's academic level. One thing the school does very well is preparing students for college. If you contact or seek for help from teachers/staff they will provide you with help as soon as possible. Harding has one of the best staffs in the whole spps district as all of the teachers are willing to listen to you without judging.

From my experience, I personally feel like most Harding teachers and staff tries their best to create an equal environment to help prevent students bullying one another. Especially here, there are many support systems such as social worker, mental health clinic, teachers, friends, and staffs.
