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.

The best part of Hampshire high school I would say is that the school has for the most part; teachers that want to see students succeed. I feel like they do a good job at being involved and also putting in the efforts to help students really achieve success.

Overall I have had a good personal experience with Hampshire high school. The school gives good access to resources in terms of academic and social help. I also play golf for the school and the program is great. I am very involved in clubs such as debate, student ambassadors, and NHS. The school offers many clubs that are easy to join for all students, including many diversity and inclusion clubs such as the GSA/BSA. The teachers are good and passionate about their jobs.

As someone who finished all four years at Hampshire High School, I enjoyed it very much. The teachers are there for the students and to guide them through the way. Students are overall friendly and respectful to each other.

Love this school! The Teachers, the Principals and Deans, and the Office Staff are all wonderful, caring people. They put forth extra effort to make kids who have never liked school (like my son), actually look forward to going! Yeah! The teachers make phone calls and send emails to parents, with pr...

This high school is a fairly new facility, looks great, and has room to accommodate the ever growing community. However the main office staff leaves much to be desired. Most of the teaching staff is spot on and driven to helping students be prepared for college. From the moment a freshman walks in t...
