Well, I think that Nathan Hale is a good school now because their rules have gotten a lot more strict. They've torn down the Nathan Hale on Martin Luther King jar. Dr. And is now located on E. 116th St. & Union, 44105(Genesis School). They now have more security, such as a metal detector and 2 security guards. They are now expelling the constantly troubled students. Compared to last year, Nathan Hale has changed A LOT!!! Close Quote
