Good environment.

Mount Hebron School failed in providing safe and positive environment for students this year . This school failed in solving the easy and basic problems between the students.This school failed in supporting outstanding students success. This school failed in helping the weak students to pass by creating positive and healthy environment and building a strong and trust and respect relation between students and teachers.I don't recommend this school for minorities.
