- Reviewed by Former Student on July 30, 2007
- Rating:
(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I attended this school from 1989 - 1995. Hickory Bend was a decent school and from what I hear it only got better. My favorite teacher is and always will be Mrs. Peterson. I'm not sure if she still works there, but if she does she knows exactly who I am. Best Regards to all of you.
