Students at HB take the same standard courses as students at the neighborhood middle schools although there are fewer options for electives. Students at HB have greater independence than their counterparts at neighborhood middle schools and operate in a generally less formal environment - students call teachers and principals by their first names at HB.

In general, maybe due at least in part to the small size and also in part to the culture of the school, HB seems to be a very kind community where kids feel free to simply be whoever they want to be.

Bear in mind, middle school students cannot participate in school sports because of the different schedule at HB (9:24-4:06), although they can play ultimate frisbee at HB. In high school (and 8th grade for sports not offered at the high school level), students can structure their schedules to have a free block at the end of the day and they can play on sports team for their home high schools.

As if most middle schoolers can play in any of the school sports; if you aren't already an accomplished travel player you won't make the cut.  [/quote]
