You aren’t valued in this school as an individual
Herschel is a terrible school to say the least. The priorities are out of line- focusing on mark’s before the well-being of students. No matter what show is put on to the public eye the problems run deeply in this school. It pushed me to the edge, ruined my mental health and made me feel like i wasn’t worthy. You aren’t valued in this school unless you are a high high achiever. Even then the pressure and mannerism from teachers is unacceptable and damaging. This should not be accepted or continu...

could be improved
really destroyed mental health very racist, would not recommend unless you’re white and rich but will give you tools to further education which is useful. if given the opportunity i would go through those 5 high school years again because of he skills i learnt like the reasearch essay, study skills etc but if you’re not going there to better your education would not recommend.

Herschel in a nutshell
I recommend Herschel Girls’ Highschool because I discovered who I was and who I wanted to be in the future. I loved some of my teachers but didn’t like my peers. Personally , the majority of girls at Herschel are bullies and do not care about anyone else other than themselves. I recommend this school to someone that has high aspirations for their future, for people who love the arts and for sporty and highly competitive people.
