My son is a Sophomore this year. His first year was good. He has always been a straight A student and nothing changed. He took advance classes his freshman year and was challenged. The only issue I had was that 2 out of 4 of his teachers were replaced half way through the year, affecting the class somewhat, but that’s out my control. When I asked him about the rumors I heard about fights and stuff, he shrugged and said that happens everywhere which is true. I thank God it didn’t affect him. I think success is based a lot on the child and what they put into their education. It’s nit all on the teachers. I do feel some of his teachers gave busy work and too much of it sometimes. All my done did was homework and football practice. It kept him busy but may be too much for others. Overall, you get out what you put in and I put in a lot of prayers as well. They, we, all need it. ;)

I just moved here fromGermany, and I must say that this is by far the best school I have ever attended! America has a truly amazing school system, and I wish I'd been given the opportunity to use it before 12th grade...

My son had a horrible experince at this school. School is overcrowded and they need to address the issues of bullying

Harnett county is one of the WORST schools districts in NC ... I have 2 Children and Somehow every year after all of the progress reports say failing with 30's and 40's they manage to get 70's and 80's at the end of the year passing them along.... Also Best friends son is currently passing a class in 4th period with a 100% despite the fact he has early release for work after 3rd and has no 4th period????? Bullying runs rampant and unchecked, School board has no care in the world about anything with the schools, a bunch of old retiree age guys collecting checks for doing nothing is all they are.... STAY AWAY from this school district
