Huntsville High School has provided many opportunities for me to step outside of my box, and join numerous amounts of extracurriculars. I would not have been provided with as many opportunities that I have had, had it not been for the different resume-building classes, clubs, and certifications which I have gained from Huntsville High, as well as opportunities to gain College Credits through many Advanced Placement and Dual-Enrollment Classes!
My Huntsville High School experience differs greatly than student's of past years due to COVID-19. I was virtual for part of my freshman year and all of my sophomore year. My school system did not know how to accurately respond to the covid situation and many of my teachers were being overworked, which sometimes created less than ideal conditions. However, I have been taught a lot during my education and have excelled in my classes. A handful of my teachers have been the kindest people ever and have impacted my life so much, while the rest of my teachers did absolutely nothing. I had the opportunity to take difficult and advanced classes as well as a foreign language and art classes. My school also sought to reward those who were working hard through gift card, free school function tickets, etc. The administration gives students opportunities to be involved in the school. There were several issues regarding inappropriate handling of school dress code by teachers and administration.
My child had a wonderful experience at HHS. The teachers made themselves readily available when students required help. Once COVID hit, this became even more apparent. I even had a teacher reach out to me personally to make sure my child was having not having any issues, questions, etc. This showed me how despite the stresses we were all feeling, they cared about their students. Also notable, is the professionalism exhibited by the school administration. While the school has a very large number of student, they go above and beyond to ensure each student's concerns are addressed. All in all, I recommend this high school.
