Very diverse school that continues a legacy of outstanding education. Rankings and test scores truly do not reflect the quality of this school, do not be swayed by that. The teachers care, the students care, and the community cares. Close Quote

I graduated form H-F in 2005. I transferred in mid freshman year from a school in Chicago where it was predominately African American. H-F was such a change to be around different races, cultures, and beliefs. Though this was a different environment for me, I had adjusted in no time. I was assigned a fellow classmate to show me around campus, introduce me to other students, and the school. Tons of activities, sports to be involved in. I look back now & wish I had did so much more while I was there. It definitely prepared me for college, and the real world, and as Much as I probably wouldn't have said this as a teen... HF prepared me for life after college. Close Quote

I am currently a junior at H-F, and I can honestly say I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. This is possibly one of the most culturally accepting schools I have ever attended. I have never seen someone being made fun of because of race, creed, color, etc. The education is exceptional; it requires you to push yourself and prepare yourself for the future. My sister graduated from this school in 2003 and she would always tell me stories about how she was MUCH more prepared for college than some of her peers, who had attended the top private schools in their areas. The curriculum may not be #1 on the charts, but it is still very good, and it does exactly what a highschool is supposed to do- nurture their students to the point that they have found their own identity, and help kids to actually retain information instead of learning and forgetting it. Go Vikings! Close Quote
