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.

Best part is everyone is friendly and nice worst part is the bathrooms can be a mess sometimes and it sucks because no one likes a smelly bathroom

I'm 17 (senior) and really like attending Heritage High School in Littleton. The classes, especially the AP & CE ones, are challenging but interesting, and the teachers are supportive and keep things engaging. The school community is awesome, with lively pep assemblies and spirit weeks that make everyone feel connected. The campus always feels safe and welcoming. It's a solid place to spend my high school years.

Heritage was a fantastic high school for my son. It provided a strong academic foundation that prepared him to be successful in college. Academic tutoring could have been provided to assist athletes be more than just eligible to play sports. That is my biggest criticism. Eligibility is a big deal during the sports season, but once the sports season was over, eligibility became less important.
