When it comes to quality and integrity this school is all about SMOKE & MIRRORS!! Herron was a complete joke in academic, extracurricular, social and moral integrity. After noticing the negative impact the school had on our son (a quiet obedient honor student) we removed him in the middle of his JUNIOR year and sent him to Pike High with absolutely NO REGRETS!!! In his own words he stated, "I could get an A in any class without trying." That from a kid who took the same classes his first semester at Pike and struggled. Yet he recovered and placed fourth in his grad class in total scholarship monies

The school is a wonderful liberal arts school with a great musical and visual arts programs. Herron High School is not an art school or just artsy people, it is a college preparatory school that allows students to get ahead and become well-rounded people for college and society. This school is open to all kinds of students with no judgment. Herron even offers AP Classes and dual credit courses (college course) to freshmen students which allows students in all grades to earn college credit so they don't have to take that course in college. This fine establishment is run by the esteemed Head of School
