I came to Hyde Park Academy(HP) sophomore year and instantly fit in. Everywhere i looked there was something I could relate to. They have a lot more programs and give a lot more opportunity then the other schools I've been to in the past. The staff and students in HP took me in and treated me like family, on my good days and on my bad. I wouldn't change my high school experience
Hyde Park wasn't much exciting. Here, the outstanding students are rewarded with things like: ceremonies, off campus lunch and school apparel that other students doesn't have access to. Other than that it's really just a basic or average high school I should say. Teachers and staff here favor certain kids and never forget those who have disrespected or fail to execute teachers and tasks.
My experience at hydepark is poor because of the staff and students and how the rules are unnecessary. Most of staff don't know how to deal with students and situations that has anything to do with students,which is why I rated my school poor. I also rated my school poor because of the lack of help that most of the staff should provide for students,For example, If a student had an item stolen from He/She the results are always "the cameras are off", "Well you're stuff is gone",etc basically no help at all when help is needed.
