This school is not as great as most people say teachers are not Involved and do little to motivate students just threaten with school punishment Principle is In trustworthy and has a demand for respect that seems a bit uneasy not many teachers really show that they care and Its just a school filled with lies students won't feel they "fit in" unless they flow one way and there isn't much diversity

Great school and a great staff the principal is very attuned to the needs of the students and he is a great communicator. To the student who gave this school a 1 star have you attended any other high school to give this review?

I have had great experiences with the teachers at this school. Unfortunately, I find that the leadership lacks character and it has failed to prove that it really cares. I believe in supporting our schools in any way possible. It just makes it difficult when you do not believe in its administrative leadership. I hope that that things improve for the sake of the hundreds of children that they have the opportunity to positively impact.

Best high school in Pflugerville ISD! The principal is amazing! He is at every sporting event, club event, competition there is. He is highly visible in the school at all times and even knows most of the students names. The students love him and have a great deal of respect for him. Therefore, the discipline is on point. My daughter has had the best high school experience and will move onto college completely prepared because of the help she received from counselors all along the way. I can't say enough great things about Hendrickson.

I love this school. Its kind of huge, but the students mostly get along well. The principals try to know their students and the teacher keep getting better. The AP classes are excellent. Its still high school, so it can be a drag, but i wouldn't want to be anywhere else. At my last school, the teachers didn't even care if you failed.

As a student, this was probably the worst school I've seen. Administrators do little to help keep the school healthy and classmates constantly throw you off. Band staff gets more insane each year and the students there act like they forgot about you. Stuff is constantly stolen from me. Basically a student would say "We don't do that here" and tell you in a rude manner to "shut up" while ignoring you afterwards. I once complained about the price of their yearbook and the staff shunned me off. Spirit seems to vanish during school pep rallies.

Hendrickson High School is an inspirational place to be because teachers foster relationships with students by recognizing and nurturing individual talents and individual academic and social needs.

The school is very diverse and has a good vibe to it. The Principal is nice and cares about kids doing well in school. The teachers seem to really want to push their students to do well. My daughter has been pretty happy with this school. I think things are going in the right direction for the next two years we have here.

This school is wonderful. My boy went to Hendrickson for high school and he received a scholarship to UT for engineering. I am very proud that he continued to push himself and that the teachers there trusted him.
