Hiland High School

As a graduate of Hiland High School I can tell you that you won't find a better place anywhere in the state for your kids to go to school. My wife and I are looking to have kids but we are waiting until we can afford a house in the East Holmes school district. However, if you are ultra-liberal and want to raise your kids that way this probably isn't the school for you. Hiland very much promotes judeo-christian values in and out of the classroom. Although I was never forced to attend a religious function as someone on here claimed, it is very clear that most of the staff and students come from Christian homes. The real beauty of the system is that while judeo-christain values dominate school policy, I still received a very well-rounded education including exposure to other religions and ideas like evolution. As a graduate of an ultra-liberal state university I can attest that I was generally well-ahead of the class despite being taught in this environment. The only detraction from the school is the foreign language department which really misses the mark. If you want your kids to be safe, well-educated, and a part of an outstanding community this is the place for you!

I am VERY thrilled with how the teachers teach the children and their vast knowledge in the specific studies. The children come first at Hiland which is appreciated. Their christian roots still hold strong today as they have prayer meetings. Sports program is loved by whole student body and famililes as they come together as a huge support to each other. Very impressed with the FFA/Ag chapter that Hiland holds. I feel that the teachers are very passionate with their job and respect the children as they teach. My only down fall with Hiland is they need to more open with the sophomores regarding future college planning.
