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.

Hamtramck High School has amazing teachers that really teach you and interact with you. In addition, Hamtramck High School has lots of diverse culture and people that can really change you and your entire view of other people. Joining this school has made me really happy and changed my life for the better. I got way better friends and cool teachers that make me smile. This school rocks!!

I want to see the school improve and not kick students out after school ends just because it's a half day or meeting or security guards have to leave. The school would be a much safer place to stay in rather than staying outside the school.

I have been going to Hamtramck Public School my whole life. My overall experience being in Hamtramck High School wasn't the best but wasn't horrible. I think the schools take work very lightly and don't fully train students for college. The teachers are amazing and care but they don't get paid enough to deal with kids in that school. The student-to-teacher ratio is horrible. The learning experience isn't fun with work always being read out from a book. Most students cheat as online teacher materials are easy to find. I have much more I can talk about but don't feel like it.

What good does a diverse high school do when you're attending school and not learning, being prepared for col...

I have no idea why HHS is portrayed as a "bad" or "below average" school. It's an amazing place to learn and seek knowledge. Everyone is welcome here and typically no one is ever looked down for their differences. People fit in, one way or the other. As for teachers and staff, they do their jobs to...
