GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I love how Highland Park is like a big family. Knowing almost everyone in my school you become close with your fellow classmates and teachers. One thing I would change is more community involvement.

I preferably would love to see a new staff change. More improvement on the teachers that have better teaching methods and better discipline actions.

School with very good academics and small class sizes great for hands on learning. Falls behind in athletics but excels in many other places.

As a parent I love this school! Has a great approach to teaching. There are some teachers I dislike but you can't love them all. But overall it is a great school.
