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.

Harbor Creek is a good school academically, but their diversity is not great. The area is predominantly white but has gotten better over the years.

Overall it was a pretty basic school there aren't really that many kids that get bullied and most of the teachers are pretty attentive and let you get away with alot. The people there are good and is pretty inclusive.

They do very very well with emotional support but the actual education is not good. I got bullied for almost 3 years and the school was notified and didn't do anything about it

Harborcreek, as a student, is an honestly poor experience . Teachers do try their best, but the guidance/authority figures do jack to help students. That, and if you're queer/disabled/POC, this is not a safe environment for you. Lots of harassment and bullying that never gets punished.
