Harmony Science Academy - Dallas High

"Best school. Teachers are so nice and understanding ( especially Mr. King and Ms. Paul and Mr. Gonzales). I love them all. High school was so fun"

"Some of the teachers are light of my life, fire of my loins - but not the one who has a strange obsession with romaine lettuce & a lack of understanding regarding basic door mechanics/function. That guy is the schitz. Also, when I initially saw the high school principal, my first thought was that Willem Dafoe had been in some terrible accident. And the rest is rust and stardust."

"Although Gianni Versace has been gone since 1997, I am his merkin and I still exist. I am currently a student at HSA Dallas. The school makes everyone sad pretty regularly. But some of the teachers are beyond AMAZING. I won't name names, because I don't wanna cause trouble, but the teachers who teach the language that I'm writing in right now are GREAT! So that's the opinion of Versace's merkin, anyway. Come at me bro."

"A great place to work. The smaller student body allows teachers to form relationships with students and help them throughout their time in the school. This has been valuable to me as an educator. Seeing students grow and mature has been a huge blessing in my life. The school offers many dual credit classes so students can graduate with half of the credits required for a bachelor’s degree if they take advantage of it."

"Nice teachers like Mr.Irmak food is getting better (siht etirw em ekam tndid yllatot yeht). School is to small and way too much homework and for some reason they are obsess with taking away jackets. SATURDAY DETENTION is the worst literally everyone is late to school i mean some of us live far away come on. school is small , ISS is torture and STUDENTS CANT LEARN THERE , needs more activities for example more field trips"

"Hey Mr. Harris! A bunch of us seniors just wanted to give you a shout out to tell you THANKS for everything you've done for us over the years! When we talk about the few things we're gonna miss after graduation, everyone said that you were the most amazing teacher we ever had! Sorry if we ever stressed you out! You are the greatest, and we appreciate you. Just in case we never said it enough, thank you from all of us!~ "The Nobody's"~"

"At first this school wasn't so bad that was until last year. Last year there, were many altercations between students, and the last student altercation I was a bystander and was forcibly involved, but I wasn't in the fight I was a victim, my face was so horribly disfigured that everyone in the school from then one called me Pennywise, my complexion was already pale enough until those two students ruined it further. The schools response was just to suspend the two students even though I was disfigured, not taking into account my disfiguration. I know will be know as clown face, Red haired freak, or even Pennywise. Thank you Harmony for caring for my feelings."

"I graduated from harmony in 2017. The school is kinda gross over all. But I give it 4 stars because of the 4 STARS who taught my ELA classes. Freshman year was Miss Mathews, who was alright but left to do some things. Sophomore year was Harris, the all-time undefeated GREATEST who changed my life for ever and all my classmates too [shout out to 10D]! Junior year was Mrs. Paul who was like a mom to me, only she was white, and I am not even close. Senior year was Mr King and he was not normal at all but in a good way. I am lucky I had a chance to have those teachers or I would have probably dropped out and got shot and my life would be trash today. Thanks to you all for ever!"

"I was recently informed that one of the highly qualified educators from this school delivered my patented "Stunner" to a hoodie-stealing jackwagon by the name of Hat Man Jones! While I approve of this type of justice, I must warn the overly-bearded ELA instructor that if he ever uses my finishing maneuver again w/o my permission, I will run him over with my Bud truck, and that's the bottom line, cause Stone Cold said so!"

"I am the parent of current & past high school students, but prefer to post anonymously, to avoid embarrassing my children (teenagers are sensitive). I decided to write a review of Harmony, because when I talk about the school with parents of students who attend Harmony, and different schools, I notice a big difference. Although Harmony doesn't have the same funding to finance interesting/fun things for students (like art, music, drama, sports, and other normal high school experiences) they do make up for it in one important area. Safety/security is a major priority at this school. The location is ground zero for ghetto-gangster danger. There have been instances of bad characters trying to get away with some serious felony-level stuff there (just like any other school) - but the AP Ms. Redmond = 'Dean of Students' is such a great leader, things are always handled professionally and promptly - to insure the kids' well-being. I have heard so many stories from students, parents, and teachers that praise Ms. Redmond for always keeping things right for everyone. Personally, I don't understand how she does it. It seems like a job that would take 2 or 3 people to do right, but she makes it work. Long story short, HSA Dallas isn't perfect, but compared to other schools in the area, it's the best choice we have. Mostly because of the great teachers who work hard, and the efforts of Ms Redmond. This is my 'Muchas Gracias' from my family - to all of you!"

"I have been working in the Harmony Schools for a long time and I can proudly say that everything for students' success and safety is fulfilled here. I especially love Harmony Science Academy Dallas because of its growing academic success over the years and the teachers are dedicated for higher achievements. My kids are also attending the Harmony Schools for the last 9 years and have always been pleased with the educational atmosphere they are exposed to. Harmony Science Academy Dallas is offering STEM, Robotics, AP&Dual Credit Courses, After School Tutorials, In Class Small Group Studies, Pull-Outs, Quality SPED, ESL, GT Services and these are some of the important factors when you determine the name of the school the students will attend.Thank you Harmony for all you give to the students"

"Every school has some problems, but if you look at the big picture, Harmony in Dallas ain't so rotten as some people like to say. It's a safe place and there are good friends. Best of all the teachers are pretty great. Miss Liu in math, Mr B in Science, Mr Phillips in History and ALL the English teachers are the reason why this is a 5 star school. Don't eat the food, though."

"HSA Dallas has been my school for a long time. I will graduate in May. During my years here, I've had a lot of ups & downs. I feel grateful for the chance to have so many outstanding teachers. There might have been some weak ones too, but they are always forgettable. The people who teach here could choose to go anywhere and do anything thing. But they decided to be here and take a lot of unnecessary abuse. They work hard and they care for the students. I had to give 4 stars though, instead of 5. The reason for this is because Henry sits next to me in class, and that ain't fun."

"Why should we allow our future generation to lack education? This school does a good job of teaching in the normal sense, but lacks in every other aspect.One of the aspects that it lacks is sports. This educational facility does not have any formal or official sports team of any kind, and whenever an attempt is made to create one, it is shut down. Additionally, the gymnasium is in poor conditions. As a gymnasium, it should've been designed to withstand impacts, but every time a ball hits the wall, the cracks on it just grow bigger and bigger. Finally, since the middle school building does not have their own gym, they invade the high school gym during the high school P.E classes. This is a problem for many reasons. The first one is that all sports played are mixed into middle schoolers and high schoolers. This creates and imbalance and a frustration to the high schoolers who should be enjoying their time playing a sport. Secondly, some middle schoolers do not know how to behave and have behavior that could irritate high schoolers, and if the high schoolers do not know how to control themselves, the result would not be good for anyone. Finally, it defeats the purpose of P.E. Most high schoolers sit out as a result of the large body of middle schoolers in the gym screaming and making inhuman sounds. This is not only a failure of equipment, but also a bad idea from the central administration.When I refer to central administration I refer to the people who are in charge of the decisions and the path this school takes. There have been some unprocessed decisions, there have been some incredibly astute ones, and there have been some infuriatingly stupid ones. There has been a constant shift in critical personal over 2015-2018. Some may argue that change is good. I disagree. When a school has different leaders, it creates a disturbance every time a new-hire takes office. As a result, the student body has to adjust to new rules and guidelines they must follow. As a result, the instructive body has to adjust to new curriculums and unrealistic expectations. As if this was not brash enough, there are the new guidelines for the oncoming school year. The library will be removed. Great. Another outrageous rule, that I doubt will be enforced, is that all student body wears the same jacket. Sold by Harmony. Sometimes I wonder if this is a communist nation or a School.There is light in the darkness, however. This school did a great job of informing students of college preparation and application. The counselors track down students to make sure that they have their college applications ready. They are more than willing to help. This is good. Changing from high school to college can be a scary experience. It’s relieving to have counselors who are at-the-ready to help those who are confused, lost, scared, or just flat-out lazy. For college preparation, this school is unmatched, I believe.More good news: the student body and most teacher staff is in good harmony. Most teachers are friendly and willing to lend a helping hand to the students who want it. There are some teachers who believe their position of authority gives them a power to rule over the students, but its a small percentage. The other percentage is easily-going with students, as long as the students are easy-going as well.Harmony Science Academy Dallas is not the best. It doesn’t have any sort of athletics. It doesn’t have any school spirit. It doesn’t have a good building or location. It doesn’t have many things it should have, but one thing is has is potential. A lot of it. This school could improve massively by Improving the central administration. Talk to the students. Listen to their ideas. If they don’t like a single jacket for everyone, don’t be prideful or greedy, just drop that idea-"

"As a Harmony Science Academy-Dallas charter school graduate, I was challenged intellectually, motivated, and helped. I recently graduated Austin College with a bachelor's degree in three fields. I do not think I could have accomplished this without the help of HSA. This school motivates students to go to college, help is always offered when needed, and the teachers truly care about the future of students. I need not to forget the welcoming spirit of the many teachers who invited me into their home, made dinner for my family and I, and taught me outside of school. This school opens doors for those who attend as long as you are willing to put in the effort and meet them half-way. I highly recommend this school to those who have a passion to learn. At HSA I had the opportunity to learn the Turkish language for four years by option, travel to Turkey twice, and enter a nation-wide science competition, I-Sweep. By 16, I conducted research at UT-Southwestern with an employee that works there. Thank you teachers who helped me. Thank you Mrs. Gunduz, Mrs. Curtis, Mrs. Zengin, Mr. Barnes, and Mr. Yesilyurt. I am now successful intellectually and it is all due to this great school. I highly recommend it."
