Hardin County High School

HCHS has been a friend to me and all of my family. It is responsive to the local community and exceeds practically all of the expectations one would have for a private institution let alone a public school. It is not perfect. There are areas that need improvement but there has always been an air of dedication to excellence. Balance is the key to a well run school. HCHS is balanced as well or better than any other school with which I have been associated.

The principal and assistant principals care deeply for the students. The teachers excel in their vocations. They love and care for your children.

This school is a joke when it comes to a student that is having problems in class learning. All that matters to this school is how well they can perform in sports.

This link from tn.gov shows the facts for Hardin County High School. http://www.greatschools.org/school/parentReviews.page?id=459&state=TN The facts are that 54%, or 595, of 9-12 grade students are economically disadvantaged. This group of students did not meet the AYP benchmark in English -a score that is worse than state as a whole. Last year Hardin County High School did not meet the state goal for graduation. It is now considered a 'target' school.

As a graduate of HCHS I myself would say this is an excellent school, although at times it seems to be operated on a 'who you know' bases. Academics are great, I my self attend a Division 1 school here in TN. Great extracurriculars and clubs. Parents, keep track and stay involved with your student at this scholl.
