I loved Hugh M. Cummings High School. I started there in 2013, which was my freshman year. I graduated in 2017 as Valedictorian. The teachers and staff were always nice. The staff was committed to their work and made sure every student had what they needed to succeed. I would like to see more options in the cafeteria, but other than that I cannot think of one thing to change!
My experience at this school was fine. The administrators however, were very unprofessional. Other than that the teachers were great.
Hugh M. Cummings high school had a very strong and caring staff. Each employee at this school genuinely cares about their job, students, and the education and success level of the kids they teach.
