Nathan Hale-Ray High School Reviews
Rating 3.46 out of 5 127 reviews
Nathan Hale-Ray High School is amazing. I couldn't ask for a more supportive, safe, and comfortable school environment than the one Hale-Ray provides. The administration here is great about college readiness as well. They provide us, constantly, with scholarships, help with applications, and much more. It's truly a great school to be able to thrive in. I personally love the music & arts department here, as that's where I spend most of time. I am part of Hale-Ray's choir, band, and drama club. All three of these activities are the best that are offered here, in my opinion. They all provide such great opportunity to connect with other students, find lifelong friends, and enjoy what you're learning all at once! Overall, Hale-Ray is one of the best high school around.
Nathan Hale Ray is small (my class has only about 60 people), but that just means that classes are more personal and each student gets the attention they deserve. The teachers go above and beyond to accommodate students and to engage motivation, which has been damaged by the pandemic (at least in my class). Counselors are eager to help you with anything, especially regarding college and alternative paths. They want you to succeed. If you respect them, they will respect you back.
There is a broad catalogue of electives and clubs that is added to every year, with passionate sports, music and theater scenes. I have not personally participated, but I can feel the spirit!
Rural CT isn't very diverse to begin with, but this has begun to change in recent years. I can't speak from experience on this as I'm part of the majority, but from what I've seen, the faculty makes an effort to encourage sensitivity and acceptance of all people.

I believe that Hale-Ray is a good school filled with good people, but we're very small. There are only 60 people in my grade which makes it hard to make friends and be involved in the different groups within the grade. The teachers within the school care about their students, and since there is so little of us, they are able to create stronger relationships with us and get to understand us on a more personal basis. There isn't a lot of school spirit and support for sports teams because there aren't enough kids interested in them. For volleyball, we do have a select group of people that come out and support us and we are very grateful for it. Our agricultural hall is great, we have animals within the school and they are very easy to access. Our administration cares about us and makes decisions to create a better school environment. Our sports equipment is kept up to date and new jerseys are given to us every couple of years which is very important. Overall, the school does a good job.
