The school has changed their overall approach and it seems to be working.
The teachers and support staff have a unique ability to bring out the best in their students. These are kids who were "written off" in other schools and they somehow manage to identify and maximize their strengths. I am very grateful for this school.

I don't think I could be so proud to be a student at Henderson Bay High School. I'm currently attending and love everything about the school. Recently we have had more freshman then we regularly do, but that's not even a bad thing. This is my second year at the school and my grades and respect towards my self have skyrocketed since I started. Thank you to every teacher at Henderson Bay!
