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.

When I first came to Hazlehurst Schools in general it was a very hard adjustment for me, especially with the teachers. As I continued into my high school career it got easier. Hazlehurst High School tries their very best to make sure we are successful .

Friends make the most of your High School Experience. I've had a few bumps in the road dealing with staff and the school's teaching methods but I managed to make it. All of it wasn't worth it, but until I make it to the end I can say it was.
