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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Attending this high school was one of the most rewarding occurrences of my life. The community shows up for the students in this rural town. Everyone was closely connected and I have made friends, including faculty and staff members, for life.

In my opinion the International Baccalaureate Program is one of the best educational programs at HHMS, and the worst part of the school would be the bathrooms and discipline.
