Mary Owen: The school and teachers are all amazing. Thank you for everything.

Chris Neme: Bright and airy, modern spaces. A new beggining, a hopeful new world. You ignore that nothing has changed, demanding to be better then your past school experiences. The disconcertedness experienced in this highschool has turned me nostalgic of my middle school days, at least those were a time when I had real friends, who have all gone seperate ways.Now you slowly dwindle, thrown to the side, a social outcast. In it's fair time it has become simply drab and unbearable. You are forced to wonder out into the beautiful nature around, but soon see it to be flawed and unfit, primarily due to the disgusting slab like building's treason against nature itself, and all the awfully planned "green" infrastructure that attends to it. Now we can't even go in the woods, lest the staff catch us and pervert our innocent intentions into great wrong doing, leaving the building during the lunch hour for one to escape the institutes shear conformity is somehow interpretted into leaving the building to cause havoc in the nearby suburbs, planning school shootings, or abusing drugs.Slowly they attemp to meld your mind, tell you what you love and know as your personal ways of thinking are problematic ways of a misfit. Even among the closest persons to friends I associate with, I am still the outsider, misunderstood and constantly misenterpreted, a shear lack of right to individuality.On an architectural level the school is drained of creativity. Harshly symmetrical, yet the infrastructure still leads to troublesome commuting, both inside and out. Entering stair shafts is comparable to turning past a lane of uncoming traffic or forcing a small paddle craft upstream in a rushing turrent. The halls in the wing of the building are uterly crowded at their extreme ends due to "classmates" loitering during passing, a combination of those exiting into the stairs or the central hall area and those coming from these areas.The entire building is cold and drafty, somehow the engineers behind this structure found it wise to have the geothermal water collection point exposed on the narrow top level maintenance floor. The ceilings directly below roofs consistently leak.Recently I have managed to be more social, but at what price? To what ends or reward? In a realm of relative social comfort, my individuallity is still forced to be sold out and neglected, only to weave into a social scape of creativity drained walking stiffs. Stiffs whom bashfully entertain themselves with who's a druggy or who's dating what or what teachers totally blow or engaging in activities on one of multiple mobile internet communities to hide themselves from the fact they are zombies on a practical level, void of a drive to improve the world, but instead the drive repeatedly driven and instilled to be successful and earn "the big bucks", regardless of lack of one contributing to a better environment or society. Peers continue to take me as weak and uncapable due to my humble refusal to join in the mass plan.

Jack C: Imagine a prison. Everybody hates each other, and sections are divided into groups. The guards (teachers) are 1 in 5 good. The math teachers are terrible, with only having a couple with a good attitude. Others, such as llaoro and burton treat the class as if they have mental illnesses, and are only there because they get paid, and have no satisfaction for teaching kids. Not only do teachers and staff abuse their power. Terrible school

Ian Wait (Delphox): I can't and won't judge the school on the teachers, there are good ones and bad ones at every school. The central administration, on the other hand, I can. And here's an example of their amazing skills: Absolutely no one showed up for the first Parent-teacher conferences last year. Why? BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T TELL ANYONE THEY WERE EVEN HAPPENING! THAT'S THEIR JOB!!! I MEAN, I COULD RUN THIS SCHOOL BETTER THEN THAT! Don't even get me started about the rest of it.

esther ᐛ: hate it, the teachers dont even teach and that is the focal point of the problem. they're also unfair and they're very disrespectful to students who never caused trouble and they actually need help on what they're learning. they dont grade on time which is super frustrating and you have to remind them every time to update your grade and it gets to the point where you dont care anymore. the organization is also really frustrating because you don't know what's gonna happen and it messes everything up. also, skytime is super pointless and we'd care more about finishing our homework than to learn about empathy... -5/10

Erik Wolverton: Well first off trying to see your counselor is like trying to meet the president you have to fill out a form and if its important then you have to tell the person the front desk and she has to relay the message! Not just that a lot of the teachers can be very disrespectful to the student and a lot have very short tempers. The "hall monitors" I guess you can call them are very aggressive as my first day I had never been to a big school before so I need help and in asking for help I was called retarded. Also to get on the good side of teachers the most time you have to ether play a sport, not ask any questions, and or be a kiss ass to the teachers. There is a lot of politics played in the school. not to mention when I came to Skyline in the 10th grade they put me in the 9th grade and they wouldn't not change it back so I was stuck in a grade I had already completed, so now im getting my GED as a referral from family who also went there and are doing the same because they endured if not the same worse! Don't let the smiles and help in the first few weeks fool you as soon as you do one thing they don't like your blackballed from any help!!!

Henry Zhou: This review has been edited to reflect the recent removal of a teacher in the English department.t̶h̶r̶e̶e̶ two stars, since Huron is the 3rd best public school in Ann Arbor according to US news, [but also hosted a potential child predator as a teacher, thus reducing the star count by one.]Now to the meat of the review. The football team gets a lot of funding, despite not having won a single game my whole high school career here. In fact, a top quarter back had to transfer out of Huron, since our O Line was so bad. He is now going to Virginia Tech, a top football school, and is on the team there. Although it's cool to brag about how cool your team looks, since football often is the biggest sport at a school, if you can't back it up with real play, it's completely useless.Some sports, such as tennis, are consistely top 3 in the whole state. In the past 7 years, Huron has won an astounding 4 state titles, yet the courts are about as bad as they can get. In fact, a member of varsity tennis even likened playing home games to guerilla warfare tactics the Viet Cong army used in the Vietnam war. The courts are a very unfamiliar territory to any person who steps foot on the courts due the countless cracks and divots, which are actually a real safety hazard. In fact, now that I think about it, the courts might actually be worse than a Vietnamese Jungle. It really is a shame to have a such a good tennis team, yet such bad courts.Now onto the teachers. It's basically what you can expect. A handfull of really good ones, mixed in with some decent ones, and some bad ones. Not gonna name any names here. [and a handful (actually so far, a single) teacher who is an alleged child predator]Finally, onto the principal. They essentially rule Huron with an iron fist, a totalitarian state, a dictatorship. Want to appeal your NHS rejection? Want to suggest a change to the curriculum? They'll set up a meeting with you alright, but the moment you step into their office, they'll just give you a big middle finger, and not even let you explain your reasoning. They play the judge, jury and executioner, and the student is always guilty. It really pains and angers me to see all the brilliant young minds not get a chance to have their voice be heard.I mean at least our bio teacher isn't a child predator, amirite? [real unfort cuz our English teacher is.]

P&B Sindone: We have had such a great experience at Huron and Ann Arbor Public Schools as a whole. From staff support to academic goals for our children. Students have more options for getting an academic challenge. An increasing number of American high schools offer the International Baccalaureate program like Huron. It offers a rigorous set of courses, and is internationally recognized. Only 830 schools in the U.S. offer the IB program, and 4,000 in close to 150 countries. Unlike AP courses, IB takes a more holistic approach with critical thinking and out of class requirements. It has students look at an issue over time and see how it has impact over parts of the world and how there is that connectivity to it all. It really gets children ready for the world. Also more college credit can be given for IB courses. I am glad my children are challenged in all subject areas at Huron. Also what’s greater than going to school right next to U of M?!

Lin L: worst school

C K: Good school

Jasmine H: campus crusade for Christ alpha omega was a great group back in 03

Cedric Sano: You are. bad

Tyrillium: Deez nuts

Aaron Graf: Let me just say that when you have a teacher, someone who is there and being paid to educate students, look you in the face and tell you that if you don't know something they can't help you. There is something seriously wrong with that. To be added to the fact is that the administration and those of the like in the office continue to let this go on despite having this brought to their attention. My experience with this school was moderately unpleasant. However, There were notable exceptions to the nonsense that went on (e.g. Mrs Wilkinson, Mrs, Miller-Wright, Mrs Krausse, Dr. Ingram.)

Marc Hamady: I had a good experience here (could be better, but it's all good). Go River Rats!!!

Allie Cell: There are tons of extracurriculars supported by a generally accepting student body. There are many classes offered, including lots of AP or AC level classes, which feature good and sometimes great teachers.

Dirk Cristle: Loved it... Dirk.

Bms Key: I honestly do not like this school because the teachers are out of line they dont teach well and the students soon go down the wrong path because of the shortages of staff and im tired of hearing DR.HALL say eagle nation!!!!!

april irby: Great school. Every school has it's ups and downs. Teachers there are very willing to teach our students that want to learn.

Andrew Grosjean: To be it's not a bad School but so many others said bad Schools are closing and for a recompense all these said bad kids overwhelmed the good ones and pervert the good name it once had we need good values taught not good and as far as activities they have a bunch of stuff I need not say a Huge selection but it's another decent school

Rj Official: Its ghetto and the teachers are constantly replaced, the rules are out of hand and i think that if you really wanted your child to go to a good school you should consider bellvile or john glen high school
