Opinions at Henderson

To a New Student at Henderson Bay

Welcome new student to Henderson Bay! It is great to hear that you are enlisting to an engaging school such as Henderson Bay. At Henderson Bay, we expect everyone to do their best each day whether it’s during school work or otherwise. If you are coming from Gig Harbor High School or one of the other larger schools, you will notice a lot of differences during your first day here. Some examples of such differences include smaller classes consisting of as low as 8 students and teachers being more involved with students here compared to other schools.

Some information that might be useful to you on your first day is knowing that it’s ok to ask questions when you are confused about something. When I came to Henderson Bay as a new student, I was extremely shy and didn’t want to speak to anyone I didn’t know. Whenever I worked on a daily assignment in class, I would occasionally get confused on a certain topic or question. Instead of asking for help or an explanation about the topic, I would stare at the assignment trying to figure it out on my own. This made my grade drop quite frequently and cause myself to become stressed. My reasoning for not asking questions was not wanting to disrupt everyone else who was working or bothering the teacher with what they were currently doing. It wasn’t until I learned that teachers are happy to help answer questions that my grade began to increase.


With the previous information in mind, you might be wondering what else to expect from Henderson Bay High School. There are many great things to expect from Henderson Bay such as kind teachers, respectful students and the expectation from others to do your best each day. You will also expect frequent daily assignments, engaging class activities and the lack of homework compared to other schools.  

Now that you have enrolled to Henderson Bay, I hope the information I have provided with be at least somewhat helpful to you on your first day and so on.

My name is Celina and I am a 17 year old senior. I have not attended any other high schools and have been at Henderson Bay since my freshman year. Attending Henderson Bay has helped expand my interest in dancing and photography as well as weight lifting. My future plan is to study to become a stage dancer and eventually become a dance photographer.
