Hampton High School

Everyone feels like Family, Small Town Atmosphere.

POOR QUALITY EDUCATION/with the exception of a few teachers! GRAD/1963 EMPHASIS ON BASKETBALL/and not academics!!

I went to hampton for 3 years and I was not impressed, some of the teachers didn't care if you failed or not, I even had one teacher tell the class that she don't care if they fail it dont hurt her at all. Thats Not How Teachers Are Suppose To Act!!! Its their job to push people to do good in school, no kid is going to be perfect and most kids their have bad parenting so its not all their fault. Fortunitly I graduated with a good gpa but I didnt feel very acomplished being as many other kids graduated when they hardly even showed up for class, or school. Hampton has the worst parenting I have ever seen or been around, its pathetic. So don't expect the kids to be too great. I will say that Some of the teachers are Great! But VERY few.... My library, algebra and english teachers were some of the best teachers I have ever had. The library teacher there helped and pushed me and other students 10x more than just about any other teacher there. I wasn't fully prepared for most colleges but I still managed to go and do good. Parents must do their part to! But all I can say is that I should of went to elizabethton, city schools are better.
