HB fam here and I'm always surprised how much false info is out there about HB

It’s a small price to pay for private school sized campus on public dime. Accept your good fortune. My DS has never met his counselor.

It's not a private school sized campus. It's an extremely small campus.

DP, but come on. It’s a private school size population in a cool, appropriately sized building. You know exactly what the PP meant. Nobody thinks HB has sprawling grounds.

There IS a lot of inaccurate info about HB that gets put out there. Some is intentional, most is due to someone not realizing they have old or incomplete information. HB is an easy target, but I’m not complaining – at all. We did get lucky.

- different HB family

It's a fine school but definitely does not compare to private. Except for the number of students.

But it is a radically different experience than the other area high schools, with a much slower pace, teachers having zero over sized classes, and less madness in the halls between classes

Not a slower pace--each HB class meets four times a week instead of five because of the block schedule. It's hard in many classes to have four periods instead of five to cover the required material (e.g., the AP and science curricula, music programs, languages).
