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.

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.

Overall, this school is very nice. The academic standards are challenging but not impossible. The staff has some phenomenal members and I had ample opportunities to express myself, which I will be forever grateful for.

Hamilton Township High School is honestly not too bad. What I like most about this school is how people of all different groups can come together as one. I also like that it's not a big school so most of us know each other. There were a few incidents that could have been handled better. But, I guess I'm conditioned to think that these issues happen everywhere. Overall, a great school for academics and music, maybe not so much diversity.
