    When I first was accepted into Harding I was absolutely ecstatic! I was ready to experience everything that Harding had to offer. I believed that Harding was the best place for me to make my transition from middle school into high school. Harding welcomed me in with open arms! Although, my freshman year wasn't that great having the support from teachers and administration to press on gave me a lot of hope.

    Harding charter Prep in all honesty is a pretty great school. I have attended there from the past 4 years and my experiences are greagreat. I created a strong bond with the teachers and faculty, every student has a chance at this school, many teachers not only care about our lives as students they care about our out of school life. They check in all the time to make sure we have the necessary tools to helps us exceed in life. Education is a 5/5, but the schools appearance could use work. Hopefully our school will soon be funded and can fix classrooms, bathroom and even get new textbooks to improve for the next generation of students!
    Excellent school that provides all students (not just those cherry-picked by counselors or that previously made B+ or A grades in pre-AP courses) the opportunity for all students to take Advanced Placement courses. This school fully prepares students to not only get accepted to a four-year college or university, but to succeed at the next level. In addition to challenging and rigorous coursework, Harding Charter Prep is home to several successful competitive performing and visual arts programs, many athletic programs, and a variety of clubs and programs for all students. The new campus and building are safe, clean, and welcoming to all.
