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 had a wonderful experience here. Despite the small school, which means limited activities and classes, the student body is amazing and welcoming and the teachers are helpful and knowledgable.

I have been a student at Hamilton Heights since I was in kindergarten. When I was a freshman, we decided to move outside of the district. We were approved to continue to go to the school. I was relieved because I couldn't even imagine going somewhere else. I drive thirty-seven minutes to school every morning just so I can go to Hamilton Heights. I truly believe I am receiving the best education I could be.
