Havana High School

The faculty truly cares about the students.

Havana High is a joke! After graduating from the 'school' I quickly found out that I was not properly prepared for college. Through the past 10 years the district has had an increasing decline in quality. This mainly includes teachers, but the constituency and officials of 126 play a major role in this transgression!

Why are we saying our school is so great?? We have not passed for the last 2 years!! I agree with the spending, could have been done better! I think we have alot of good teachers, but we also have a few who need to GO! We also need to look at our leaders, I feel we could do better! Ours are way out of touch-I mean honestly how can you lead when you are a bully!! Think!! We have candy coated all the wrong doings of our leaders!! Why?? Can we not understand they are to be role models for our children!! If they are given a slap on the wrist what does that say to our children!! I honestly feel we need to remove one of our principals, 4 or 5 teachers and really put our students first!!

I agree with T.L. The school does not have it's priorities right. The board members had a chance to stop the wasted spending on a fitness center. It seems more important for them to have a fitness center than to have proper security in place at the school's most vunlerable kids, the elementary school's security is a shame. They tell parents with children who have special needs that the school can not afford to provide them what the I.D.E.A laws state they are required to provide, but they can fork out all the money they did for a fitness center. Does this say sports and fitness trumps ,students safety and education or what! Sure does! If we could move to another district we would! Prehaps one that places more focus on Safety and education over sports and fitness.

Havana is a good school...I went there also,but I think that they need to spend more time with the kids,such as BETTER counseling for family matters,more activities that are not sports related. I also think instead of spending 300,000 on a workout room they should consider the shape of the school,roof etc. The kids could go to the old New Central gym and make a very nice workout room down in the basement. This would save ALOT of money and then other things could be done.
