This school seems to have a serious lack of resources. The landscape is unkept, untidy and there is nothing attractive. The hedges are full of trash and leaves. The playground is unkept, dirty, old and unsafe. The front entrance walkway floods when it rains, and the children are mandated to walk through the water getting their shoes soaked. The parents are not allowed to go beyond the lobby area which gives an indication the classrooms are probably just as unkept as the landscape. Parents are not allowed to meet the teacher or visit the classroom for new students. This is scary because the parent does not have a clue who the teacher is or what type of environment is setup for teaching. I can almost guess the classrooms are probably overcrowded. My child came home sick the first week of school which gives an indication that the school or teachers are not practicing COVID guidelines. My child also, stated a kid was bullying and the teacher said, "there is nothing I can do about it". I would not recommend this school. This school has taken a major landslide.

Horn High school is a school that definitely provides the resources for students to succeed, they have qualified teachers who truly care about the students. Unfortunately as a whole it has negative publicity due to the fact that it has around 3000 students and there are alot of student’s that cause trouble, however that is the responsibility of the parents. We need to take accountability as parents for our students academic success. One of my sons that goes here went to a very prestigious school as so to say and the curriculum or classes they offer was not any better, in the contrary, Horn offered alot more Dual credit classes for students. My son has excelled in both high schools, taking challenging AP/Dual credit courses.
