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.

I love going there! It is so easy to get involved with the school while getting a good education. It is a big family there not just a school. If you send your child to HHS they will love it. This year has been super weird but it has still been great at Hazard High school. HHS has the best principal ever! That is evident if you go there!

The experience of attending Hazard High School is difficult to put into words. I can honestly say that the experience was unique, and deeply rewarding. Hazard is lucky to have such a wonderful High School and Independent School system, and I'd be lying if I don't hold the school close to my heart.

I like how the teachers are so involved with the students and how hhs really encourages everyone to have a good future and urges them to make good choices. extremely helpful when it comes to applying for colleges and such. my only problem is the food offered in the cafeteria.
