My experience at Highland Springs High School has been great. Most teachers as well as administrators and counselors genuinely want all of the students to succeed. There are many available resources you can access at Highland Springs that help you navigate your high school experience as well as things after high school.

As a recent alumni of Highland Springs High School, I can recall many aspects of both the community and resources provided that were able to prepare me for college and beyond. The faculty and staff did their utmost to prepare and care for the students they were leading and teaching from going the extra mile and consistently reminding students to complete assignments, ask for help if needed, and seek guidance when it is necessary.

As a student who attended two unconsecutive years of schooling at Highland Springs High School, I would say the education is very lax. The school culture is very minimal, but sports has always been our strong suit.

As with any school rating, You must rate based on all aspects of schools performance. It is a great new school and the staff members are dedicated to helping the students succeed in every way possible. Great Job. Go Springers.

The school could do some changes. Some teachers are passionate on teaching their students even if their having a bad day but other teachers just teach to get paid. The young adults should have a say on what goes on in their school. HSHS IS OVER CROWDED!! Hallways are always packed, students only get...

Its WAY overcrowded. I could barely get to my 3rd period. Theres always fights and we are always on restricted movement. All the kids are not even worried about education. They just care about popularity. The only good things about that school is the tech centers, sports, and clubs.
