I graduated from John Handley in 2008. My high school career was full of personal issues; I went through a death of a close love one, teen pregnancy and raising a child, and my father passed in my senior year, then 7 months later my mother found out she had cancer and had to go through radiation and chemo tratment. The school was so supportive through it all. The staff cares about their students and will work with them until their goals are accomplished. I had issues about my classes and having enough credits to graduate and they worked it out all for me. The school is like a family. It's full of tradition and will instill pride and self confidence in you! There courses are hard but they make you earn your diploma and you can't have any shame ofr that. They only want the best for you.

Handley was a great school to finish out my high school career in! With the history and architecture, I was in an environment unlike any academic atmosphere I have experienced. I will always remember the memories of the heels in the wooden hallway and the magic of standing atop the front steps looking down onto the football/soccer field! How I miss the fun soccer days. Good luck!
