Searcy High School

We just arrive from another country and my child hardly spoke any english, but by week 3 he was confident enough to start speaking it. They have done such a wonderfull job, that he wakes up every morning happy to go to school.

Harding is a great place. It’s fun, safe, and they really emphasize having good relationships with everyone- God, teachers, each other. But it’s definitely not a diverse or frankly open minded place. If it’s found out you have drank, smoked, or done anything with the opposite sex on or off campus, you’re kicked out. The dress code is strict (however, uniforms are going to be put into place next year so we will see what comes of that). If you come out of the closet, you will be asked to leave. A lot of people who attend Harding do not care about these rules very much, so it’s not like a tense environment or anything. I say all of this to say that Harding is clean, sometimes wholesome, and oftentimes boring. It can be an amazing experience if you make it to be, but don’t ask it to do anything but what it’s done for 100 years.
