I loved this school sm like it was rlly good and the teachers r so nice. There’s cockroaches sometimes (barely) but it’s still really nice in the inside. The teachers are good at teaching and make it fun.

as a student this school was awful for my mental health. they do not do anything about anyone. some kid sexually assaulted others and then the principal was like “well he’s not doing it now so the rules i made didn’t matter!” do not send your kid to this school. also, they don’t offer the extracurriculars the other schools do like theatre, other languages besides spanish and maybe asl? when i went there they didnt have it. please fix this school and the faculty because they disrespect students all the time, and all the students do is vape. there is some good stuff, but all bad outweighs it. but l.d. bell is a good high school.

I have a student in Jr high and grade school. Love the teachers they work well with the students. If a child has problems they sit down one on one and help them. Sports is part of school but education is more important. A student doesn't feel ignored at this school no matter who they are. I feel safe sending my children to the schools.

I am a Hurst Junior High student, and, I love this school! This is the best school I've ever been. All the teachers are awesome and care about us(students), they do their best to help us to keep up with the subject and when we don't understand what they are trying to explain, they explain it again with easier examples until we understand it. They try to make the subject the easier possible. HJH has an excellent staff and they are always there to help you in anything you need. I will always remember this school and I think that thanks to them, I am ready for HS.

I have a 7th grader about to head to 8th grade. I am veriy disatisfied with the feedbacki get back fromthe teachers.I was extremely let down that while in Elementary school the teachers were very involved in his well being but now in Jr. high it's more of a sink or swim. I appreciate the fact of teaching them about responsibility but I think the teachers & staff should realize that they are still kids that need guidance. I am very disatisfied with the support.
