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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

During my time at Hayden High, I was a little disappointed, coming from a higher budget school to a lower budget school was hard, because the facility was lacking, although the shared in course trade school was a silver lining, overall the school isn't to bad and the faculty were kind and enduring.

Hayden High School is not the weak ,it is a small school in the sticks .At Hayden High School the teachers never taught or took anything seriously,and when you ask the councilor for help on colleges she doesn't care enough to lead you in the right way .
