only cares about making money instead of caring about their students

Not impressed. Not following the 504 for my child. Same goals every year with zero progress. Students with specials needs are ignored. I could write so much more about promises broken; lies told and so on... Things that would take them 5-10 minutes do not get done. Took my child out and moved to a private school where things are 100% better.

Our third child is currently enrolled at Hampton High School and we can do nothing but rave about how wonderful this school has been for them. It challenges them academically with many honors and AP courses available. The standard academic level classes also challenge the students to work above the "minimum requirements." HHS instituted a "writing across the curriculum" program and philosophy some years back which drew our attention when our oldest son was transitioning from a private school some years back. This program seeks to build the writing skills of all students, even in math and the sciences. What a wonderful concept! The extracurriculars at this school are as varied and numerous as the academic offerings. The commitment of faculty and staff is tremendous. The parents are welcome and committed to the school, as is seen in the very active PFA. There are plentiful sports opportunities. The school's marching band is noted for it's size; nearly one quarter of the student body participate! HHS has an outstanding drama corps and has won several Kelly Awards, including best musical for their 2011 production of West Side Story. We love this school!
