  • I was impressed with Dr Boyd, Principal and his decision making ability. He is efficient and effective as a school administrator. I was also impressed with Mrs. Shirley Stoner, Guidance Counselor, who registered my youngest daughter. My other two daughters enjoyed Science Hill and are now at a university. SHHS has two very caring people.

  • the fighting is impossible now, their are over 425 cameras that see almost everything in that place, other than restrooms.

  • It's easy to skip- just walk off campus or hop in your car. No one is really looking- doubt they care as well. It's easy to sneak alcohol, and I would guess drugs as well, onto the premises and it's just as easy to witness or be in a fight. There are some good teachers that actually care at SHHS, but you'll get lost and possibly drown in the sea of people before you find them.
