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 been at New Hope my entire life and they only had my best interest in mind. So, I wouldn't change a single thing about New Hope and I would recommend the school to anyone.

I've attended New Hope schools all my life. Some years were good, while others could have been better. I feel, as a senior, that if the New Hope High School wants to get better, administration and staff need to do a better job of making the students who identify with minority groups feel more welcome. It's easy to be shunned for who you are or who you like, and I feel as if New Hope High School turns a blind eye to these instances.

It was a very easy and streamlined experience they focus mostly on academics and preparing you for college classes.
