Overall I'm pleased that my son attends this school. The school has improved yearly. They now have sports, AP classes, and clubs. The principal is dedicated and works hard for these kids, she has college courses on site. Her main focus is to prepare the students for college. The API score is higher

I disagree with the student that was/might be now in 'ASB'. If they claim to be in ASB then they know exactly how the school works. So please do not tell me that in that school there isn't favorites, we (all the students), know the true. Especially you, as I'm sure you have experienced how hard it is

How do i know, well you could say i was/might be in ASb too A sto the activities and opportunities that are offered in the school, yes you are right there are many opportunities there, however it is sad to say that only those who need the credits could take extra courses during and only those who are 'advance' in a subject could take honors or AP classes. Overall however the school has improved. Read less

I think this school is a good choice for many students who cannot afford private school but who really need individualized attention and a small school environment. I have kept in contact with teachers through email and they have been very receptive. Also, their powerschool program let's parents check
... Read more grades at all times. I know that it's lacking in AP classes and extracurricular programs but I think it's worth it to give up on some programs in order to offer a college preparatory curriculum for all students. What I would like to see improved is the Math program because it shows in the scores that the Math instruction is really lacking. Read less

I was looking for the best option for my child when she graduated from a parrochial school in the area and I truly believe this school has been the best choice for her.

I disagree with the previous comments made by the students. One said that the principle has favorites and this is not true. She is fair in her decisions and she chooses people who she believes will take advantage of the opportunity. We have basketball team and currently have a basketball intramural.

Unfortunately the coach was not able to make the team again but next year she will have cross country and this running program again. I am also in the student government and we have accomplished activities but I guess the student that wrote the previous comment was not well informed. We have had our first Winter Formal in January and last week we had a school dance competition. During the week we sell snacks to fundraise for future activities and for next year s prom. I am aware there are some teachers who in fact do not challenge the students but it up to the individual to challenge him or herself. There are opportunities in the school just that you have to have the courage to seek and look for them; they are not all going to come for you. I entered in tenth grade and I feel I have improved in all areas. I think this a good school for those students who want to expand their abilities and who are committed to over achieve the regular expectations. Read less

HPCRAHS offers rigorous course work to prepare students for college. We don't offer many extracurricular activities, sports or many AP classes (yet). Our school is only in its third year and already we academically out perform all the area high schools. We are a small charter school with average class

Teachers and admintrators know all the students by name and more importantly, they KNOW their students, who their parents and siblings are, what their likes and dislikes are etc. Like all schools we have occasional problems but unlike the schools I have taught in the pass the problems are fixed quickly. I love this school, my fellow teachers are the brightest and the best, and above all we have the most awesome students! Read less

This school is not bad but good its circulm is high and challenges the students. However, the principal has favorites and always chooses them to take part of all the acttivities.

What makes the schools average go down is the fact that the principal always chooses her favorites. Read less
