Hereford High School

If you are planning to move to the Baltimore area, try to find a location in the Hereford Zone in Northern Baltimore County so your students can attend Hereford High School. They will receive a top notch education in a beautiful rural location with lots of opportunities available locally and in the very nearby Baltimore metro area. My husband and all three sons attended Hereford, so I can personally attest to all of the above!

Hereford is one of the best I absolutely love my students there. They are so kind, polite, and especially smart. I have seen so many of my students go on to top colleges and succeed so well in whatever they chose to do.

I have been to schools all over the county and without a doubt, this is the best high school in the county and possibly even the state. Even as a sub teacher, I have never had a single problem student. School building is old and needs some work but the spirit within is THE model for every other school in the country.

I am not only a parent of a HHS graduate but I myself graduated from there in 1978. My daughter graduated in 2006 and will be starting her senior year of college in the fall. I feel too that HHS is a great school because it has constantly had students that scored high on the SAT's. It is a unique school and has always excelled in sports too. Tracy

I taught at HHS most of my career. You just can't beat the students, community and staff.

I went to Hereford High School and I graduated in 2005. I love the teachers and staff because they really prepared me for college. I was more prepaired than most of the private school students.

I went to Hereford High and now my 2 sons go there. It truly is a Private public school. After I graduated I moved away for college and once I got married and had children I had to move back, I would'nt have my kids going anywhere else. They are doing awesome in school and are prepared for college with out a doubt! In the next 2 years they will both be out of HS and on there own in college. The parents are nice and classy as well as the students. If you ever want a great school with amazing teachers students and SPORTS get your kids to Hereford. Another perk it's a very pretty school beautiful location and beautiful people!

My husband went to HHS and so do my two boys. My oldest just started at Stanford, and commented how well his teachers at HHS prepared him for college. He took many AP courses at HHS, and enjoyed them all, especially his classmates. My son went from HHS to upperclass courses at Stanford with no problems at all. He also fits in well with the Calif culture and the diverse kids on campus. My younger son is loving the athletic program and the commitment of the teaching staff to the kids at school. I only wish he was taking advantage of the great music program as well. We feel very fortunate to live in the 'Hereford Zone'.

I am a current student at Hereford High, and I love every second I'm there! The teachers are amazing; they really listen to what you say and assist you if you have a problem or need help reviewing some of the material. All together it's an outstanding school!

I am a student at Hereford High School. I am in my senior year and couldn't be happier. The opportunities that I have received have been amazing. We were one of the first schools to offer AP World History in the tenth grade. Because of all the opportunities for AP courses in school I already have a semester worth of college credits without ever having been to college. It's set me up for success including scholarships and an overall lead. The teachers are excellent and the 4 period day allows us to get 4 extra credits in addition to an hour during the day devoted to clubs. The enrichment hour is valuable especially since colleges look at extra curricular activities.

Hereford is a great High School in a great Area. My oldest child graduated from Hereford in 2006. She got into a great College in North Carolina and told me thanks to Hereford, 'I feel really prepared for College.' She said many students were struggling with the long college classes which many are 1 hr 15 minutes (75 minutes), but she was just fine because she had 90 minute classes at Hereford! She really had a chance to explore career paths at Hereford too. Great High School, along with a great Middle School! Go Bulls!

Wonderful school! Our kids got a rigorous course of study in math and science. Music is also a standout program. We encountered many outstanding teachers, a small handful of mediocre teachers and zero bad teachers there over the years. Most of the kids there are polite and high achieving. We love HHS!
