- THIS SCHOOL SUCKS they have no idea how to do anything. this is probably the worlds worst school in the history of humanity and i unfortunately have to go here but not for very long. if any parents read this DO NOT ENROLL YOUR STUDENT HERE they will become the biggest failure ever.

(Rating: 4 / 5) Report As Inappropriate - Despite it's defined image, Hoover High School is built for a purpose, which does serve people's needs and hopes for the future. But unlike some judgmental students, the rest of the population has obtained the true definition of a school, which interferes with the individual a student is and wants to become, something Hoover High School represents!In conclusion, this school rocks as the educational source most don't see from it.
