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.

Being a Hutch Tech student has been such a privilege. It has helped me get through a lot like I have made friends easily because of how diverse this school is, how there is many clubs like the pacific Asian club and art I enjoy. I love how the students are very friendly and supportive. My most favorite thing about hutch tech is their spirit week, which I go all out for. Being in this school has made be more confident in myself and has made me overcome what people think of me. Thanks to the staffs in hutch tech for making us feel comfortable and safe.
