I am not a fan of HHHS. From what I saw, this school implies a tracking system which allowed for lower performing students to fall through the cracks. I have seen the kinds of students who prosper after graduation, they are the ones with money, the ones that were pushed into AP and IB courses in high school and whose parents had pull. On the other spectrum, the lower performing students are now at low end jobs, single parents, and going no where. I unfortunately never met a teacher who genuinely seemed interested in their students actually succeeding or pushed or motivated me in any sort of way. I am now luckily at a top college in the state, but that is in no way thanks to Hilton Head High. Go to Prep if you have the chance, everyone succeeds, not just a lucky few like HHHS.
The school is great. It is well run, the students are in uniform and the halls are quiet and orderly. The IB program is wonderful. It is very vigorous and really prepares students for college. The teachers are top rate. There are also many AP courses available. Generally we have been very satisfied with the caliber of learning that is expected and the range of classes offered.
The teachers are amazing, the International Baccalaureate program is not a sham. It is highly recognized world wide and any student that has endured it will be well prepared for college and the business world.
I am hoping that the new principal will hold true to her promise of structure and discipline. This is a school of have and have nots and in the past if you were'nt at the top of the heap you were headed for trouble while other parents bought their kids out of trouble. The IB program is a sham. The majority of the instructors were'nt properly trained
