There are one or two good teachers but I’ve found the majority are lacking. His 7th grade English teacher especially. Poor communication skills, does not follow up, and I actually sat in his online class a few times as she would not return phones messages or emails.m. She refused to speak to me and seemed overwhelmed and generally confused, possibly the tech confused her, but it’s possible she should have retired by now. We sat in at lunch with our son once and it was awful. Children were tackling other kids, punching, throwing food, some of the food even hit me. There was no intervention at all. Worst behaved kids and a completely unconcerned staff. That probably describes the majority of the schools faculty, unconcerned.

This is the first year dealing with this school. The Traffic is Terrible. We live 2.8 miles from the school , and it takes almost 30 minutes to get into the parking lot and they expect everyone to be there at 7:05. It is impossible to be early. The least they could do is have a crossing guard and or a small grace period to get inside. It makes every morning bad and frustrating. Ive never seen the first piece of homework.

HES is a community school that places a great emphasis on providing a great education in a safe environment. This school had its challenges in the past but it's made incredible strides in the last two years.
