This school is not as bad as some people may think, most of the people are nice and a lot of the teachers are good at teaching. There are some bad things at this school like drug use and distribution as well as discrimination. Overall it is pretty good and I was in the engineering center so maybe normal classes are different, but if you want to go here then do so, if not just don't there are plenty of schools and specialty centers to choose from.
Reading the reviews you would think that HSHS is a bad school. A few of the reviews sound like they are all relating to the same incident. Honestly, I thought the same thing about HS when I first moved here because that's what I heard. It wasn't until my oldest daughter became a student of their Advanced College Academy that I had the chance to deal with them. Newsflash...it's high school. There are no shootings, no stabbings, no one is getting robbed. Are there bullies? Yes. Are there kids that don't go to class? Yes. Are there bad seeds? Yes. Are there lockdowns? Yes, to protect the students from outside AND inside threats. But that is any high school in America. My daughter graduated with a 4.2 gpa from this school. My youngest daughter is a student now with a 3.4 gpa and my son is now a freshman. The school is accredited with students that care about their grades and teachers that care about their students. That does have a lot to do with the football team AND cheerleader squad that are 3 time state champs...back to back to back. Yes, I am a cheer mom. I have no issue with Highland Springs....it is a great school.
I loved the school and I love the teachers I had except one but other than that I loved the school. People there were nice and I had a lot of friends there and there was barely any drama there!!!! I love this school GO HSHS!!
I love my school. I graduated in 2003. We had a great fine arts and athletic department. HSHS is growing everyday. I would send my own child to this school without hesitation.
Highland Springs High School is a variety of good and bad. It's all about choices. People can say that it's a terrible school, but you can't blame the whole school for what some of the students, and for what some of the staff has done. Each student has a choice. Each staff member has a choice. It is true that a lot of things can be prevented from happening at HSHS. Nobody focuses on the students that are doing right, nobody acknowledges us. We all just see a bunch of teenagers fighting, making bad grades, and failing SOLs. So the school is 50/50.. Everyone has a choice of how their years of high school is going to be... Whether they're gonna make good grades, or whether they're just going to not care about good, and do things just to get by... Or just simply fail. Everybody has a choice... So don't blame the whole school.
