     The faculty, staff and administration look forward to the challenge of continuing Herrin High School's long tradition of excellence. Our goal for each student is to maximize academic performance and to develop social competence, responsibility and self-confidence. We believe that the positive development and success of all students are common goals and a collective responsibility shared by parents, students, community and school. We also believe that the central purpose of our school is to promote student learning, and that optimal learning conditions are best achieved when parents, students, community and school cooperate and mutually support each other.
