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.

During my experience attending Haverford High School, I have always appreciated the opportunities that the district gives students to pick whatever field they want. Although, some clubs and other core extracurriculars are often forgotten about when compared to our football team who is always receiving financial provisions from the school

I think overall that HHS is a very good school. Many of the teachers are engaging and the students are welcoming. We have had many great events to participate in and show our school pride. Our art and music departments are widely varied and entertaining with multiple course options. I have only had one teacher I disliked simply because of their teaching style. There are also many students willing to help others when needed and it's pretty stress-free. Teachers give plenty of time to finish assignments and are always open to answering questions. I couldn't be more proud of attending HHS and be part of such a supportive community.

Haverford is an amazing school! Teachers, staff, admins, students and parents are all great to work with. If I had kids I wouldn't hesitate to send them here. I have taught and worked in other schools, and Haverford is by far the very best.
