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.

My overall experience has not been horrible but also not the best. While it is not an outstanding school I have had lots of positive memories made here. I have mainly enjoyed my time being in the band and time with my friends. The academics are not amazing compared to other schools, some teachers don't really teach and just give you a bunch of work. It's not a bad school to go to, but not my favorite.

I've been enrolled in Haughton High School for all 4 years and there are definitely some bad things but also some good things. Bad things that occurred to me personally was that I was constantly ignored for NHS and it took me a year for them to let me in even though I had the requirements since freshman year. One good thing that happened was that this school has college classes that go straight through colleges like Louisiana Tech.

Haughton High School is a very basic and average school. It is behind the times and desperately needs more resources in order to match schools in other states like Texas. However, teaching is still pretty decent in most classes and the school spirit is amazingly high. It is a 7/10 school in this state in my opinion.

This school feels so segregated when you are actually a student there. To make matters worse, black and Hispanic students have a harder time excelling there. Just look at the test results. Why are black and brown students so far behind their white counterparts when it comes to college readiness and...

Haughton is your typical small town school while there are favoritism's among student teachers and kid's parents that went to school there it is not what everyone is making it out to be. Haughton has its downsides, one of them being it does not offer a lot of classes for kids to excel in and there a...
