Horrible school!! DONT REGISTER YOUR CHILD HERE! The staff here are all very rude and disrespectful. Now you would expect the principle to be help but not even she cares. I asked her a question, mind you I spoke kindly, she simply looked at me didn't let me finish, spoke and left, not even excepting my thank you gesture. BULLYING in this school is REAL. They have a no bullying policy but don't follow it. My sibling told me once how she witnessed a girl getting bullied by three girls and none of the teachers did anything. The girl cried in front of a dean and did not help. The principle only respects certain people such as her staff and Caucasian people. I've personally seen them disrespect and talk over every other race. I understand that parents may want their kids to attend activities after school but its the learning that matters (ENGLISH, MATH, SCIENCE, HISTORY) ALL SCHOOLs offer this. PLUS this school has no working ACs and half the teachers are leaving this school leaving the worst teachers there. HAVE A GOOD DAY.

Outstanding school, very friendly, super good, Nice!

This school occupies 2/3 of a floor on the 4th floor at the Lafayette building. This means the school is very small. A small school means small opportunities and limited flexibility. This affects all aspects of the school including the schedule and types of classes. The schedule is strict for all students and teachers. For example, you can't change your lunch period; same for the other schools in the building. And unlike other highschools, all students have the same amount of periods (seniors can't leave earlier). Students have very few options for a different class, if they want to change one. For example, a student can't just ask for a computer science class instead of graphic design for a specific period. There are just a few courses in this school. That's because there are limited amounts of rooms for a class. Because the school is small, there are a few teachers; when one of them leaves their jobs, the whole classroom of students has nothing to do. For these reasons alone, the school has some struggles being organized. My recommendation to make the school more competitive is that all the schools in the building should be combined.Most students say they don't like this school. Some teachers aren't happy with this school. HSSM is a uniform school and they give all students free uniforms every year. Most students say the uniform is not their style. Students are required to have their phones in yondr pouches all day. The teachers are encouraged to talk to students about wearing uniforms and enforcing the phone policy.This school is for people that like to go with the flow. If you are a student that is very competitive, you should choose a different school.
