Moved here my junior year, now a senior. The school itself is amazing, there are so many more granted freedoms then other high schools I've been to in the past. I participated in a sport when I came in, so making friends was easy. The teachers are always available to help students understand their work. The town itself is also great, a perfect high school experience. Had a great time!
Hastings is an amazing school district. They have an outstanding curriculum and provide resources for special ed kids. Thus, I was one. That said, it would take me a longer time to process information. Hastings gave me the tools I needed to learn material in a way that I could keep up with the class material and my peers.
Further, I was provided extra time in separate classrooms during testing since I needed a few more minutes to process information. Further, the professors are outstanding and they truly care for their students.
Hastings feels like a private school. The classes are intimate, so the teacher to student ratio allows for students to thrive more being that them and their professors "know" each other. And the professor can truly attend to the students.
Hastings also thrives in the arts. Music, crafts, talent, technology, and more. Many students thrive in this environment.
class trips are lovely.
The only downside, is that there is not much diversity.

It's sad to see that the school district is on the decline. As the middle child of 3, I'm witness to the state of the schools before, during, and after my time in the district. Good teachers used to be plentiful, now they are few and far between. Naturally gifted students can flourish in this environment, but students that struggle tend to get forgotten and ignored. Tensions between administration and students is quite high. The student community has always been a bit cut throat, with students looking out for themselves and their grades instead of working collaboratively. Out of concern for their college prospects the students that can afford it (the majority can given the district is in an affluent neighborhood) just pay for tutors to make up for the fact that many of the teachers don't teach much. I'm pretty sure that this (along with major unchecked grade inflation) is the reason the school looks the way it does on paper.
