Every Teacher,staff and student is making HHS a better place. My daughter LOVES HHS! Close Quote

There is so much to say about this school. It is bad, and well it isn't a suitable workplace. I am about to be a senior here and it isn't academically challenging. You are not allowed to voice your opinion, even on tests where it says "In your opinion..." The food here is terrible. Sure you can pack a lunch but what's the point since you can't really microwave anything. Another thing is that we have Alternative Education, which is for the kids who get into fights and are on the "wrong path." What do they do all day? Play basketball, take walks, and no work at all. We have people who just don't care about school and I realize that you have this everywhere but we aren't doing anything to make them care. The teachers can't teach if they have to deal with the people who just don't care. This school is honestly in my own opinion one of the worst. Close Quote
