I chose to join the HPW community because it is an innovative school with a spectacular STEM program. HPW also helps you be college ready by offering AP classes and making sure every student will get into a 4-year college of their choice. HPW also provides extracurricular activities such as clubs and sports. HPW is a fast-paced school that requires students to work hard to accomplish their goals. HPW also contains a great campus life and an amazing community. As you transition through each class, you will notice that every teacher in the HPW staff tries to teach you what you need to know in order to succeed. I do not regret joining the HPW community and hope others can have the same opportunity too.
