Herricks High School is a great school. I immigrated from Korea to the United States two years ago, and Herricks was my first American school. I had a hard time adjusting to American culture, language, and food. But fortunately, I came to Herricks School, where I could meet good friends and teachers. My counselor and other teachers took care of me carefully and understood. Herricks High School's greatest strength is the diversity of races, so my friends treated me friendly without being awkward. It is my most excellent luck to be able to come to such a good school. Herricks High School is a fantastic school that offers a variety of high-quality classes, high academic enthusiasm, and teachers who are passionate about education!
I benefited a lot from going to Herricks High School (a.k.a Blue Ribbon school). The teachers prepared me for college and helped me whenever I needed it! I never had a problem at this school. I made a lot of friends, had a really good relationship with my guidance counselor (Mrs. Gigante), got involved, etc.
Most of the teachers here are very friendly and willing to help you when you need it! There is a very good music community here, as I believe I would not have been able to get so far in music if I didn't go to Herricks. I've gotten so many opportunities in music because of the amazing music teachers we have! I also appreciate the variety of classes available for us to choose from, allowing us to explore our passions.
