"As a current student, I say that the best that Andrew Hill offers are the amazing teachers who want to see all of their students succeed. I have yet to have a teacher who simply doesn't do anything, although I've heard of a few who do. I would say that the problem lies within the administration of the school. This year has brought some changes to the administration, but there is still a lack of promotion to succeed and do more that what is asked of the students. You will rarely ever see the head principle around talking to an audience or even to a performing group at a school event, if they were to show up at all. The only times I have heard her speak in front of an audience were at graduations, or if there were "important" guest speakers visiting. Other than that, the best of Andrew Hill are the teachers who devote incredible amounts of time and effort to the students, which includes the whole lot. Also, there are the handful (compared to the whole school) of students in programs such as IB and Medical Magnet who truly excel and strive for more. Not to say that the rest of the school doesn't at all, but they don't have much motivation, for which I blame the admin."

"This school is known for unsatisfied with school system, is so terrible. Or maybe it the staff, always blaming on the system. The stuff always seem to be very unclear and unaware about student record, they give you the run around. This is an disappointment to see our children has to go through this! Andrew staff lacks of understanding how to work the system, they have no knowledge of communication with parents and other staff at other school. Andrew staff has poor knowledge of how to plan, how to prepare student for back to school. I strongly believe it not the system. They kept blaming it the system. They've been using this line for over 20 yrs. It works cause parent has no choice. This school is a concern for me... if this is the behavior of the staff member, so lack of polish and gentleness, limited to lacking in social and indifference to the needs of others. Can't even think of what kinda of education the children is getting. I would hate to see them teaching our kids to be, lazy, carefree, un-prepared, just find something to blame on.. this would stuck!!!"

"I love this school here. The only thing bad is the staff but other than that, this school has great programs and opportunities for student to choose from. This school has the reputation of being bad and the students being mean and such, but really, the students here are great. They're very nice. Don't listen to the schools reputation until you experience it yourself."

"Many people have said this school was super horrible and people are mean and such. In my opinion people are very warming here. The only reason that I am unsatisfied with this school is that the school system is terrible. They are super slow at everything, for almost all events it takes them forever to finish. Even school picture day is being held back for almost a whole semester. But the teachers are great here."

"By far, one of the best schools in the area. The staff is comprised of educators who truly care deeply about every student who attends this school. The students who attend Andrew P. Hill are generally kindhearted people who are independent and very educated. Although there are some people there who do not care much about education, they generally avoid the rest of the school population and do not bother anybody. Every year, Andrew P. Hill produces students that are accepted to some of the most prestigious universities in the world. These include Columbia, Stanford, Harvard, UC Berkley, UCLA, Yale, and others. These students also tend to receive multiple scholarships. If any parent wishes the best for their child, he/she would enroll their student in Andrew P. Hill and allow their child to blossom through this school's multiple programs, that include IB, AP, Bio Tech, Nursing, Green Academy, and Hill Academy."
