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.

Hermiston has a lot of variety for electives. There is anything ranging from healthcare to agriculture to business. There are also Programs of Study that include classes that can help you better prepare for your future career.

I enjoyed parts of Hermiston High School. They provide excellent classes to help you jump into the world, such as health service and business classes. The staff there can either be the best people you meet or the worst. They put meeting standards over their own students, and even at one point dress coded 70 girls as they walked into the building their first day just to prove a point. I would like to see them be more compassionate and care more about their students than their standards they have to meet.

Hermiston High has amazing CTE programs and clubs overall. The sport programs are great and the coaches are good. The teachers are either really good or terrible, but thats alright.

HHS seems very heavily weighted towards sports, as that's what...

I went to this school 9th and half of 10th grade. Academically, this is an average school. The kids there play mind games all day about who is popular and who is not. I didn't really pay attention to that to much though. For me it was about getting through the day. Because there was nothing to look...

Hands down, one of the best schools I have ever sent my kids to. This school is great, it really focuses on learning. There are so many more classes students can choose from and most of them don t have age, or grad restrictions. This school made it so easy for my kids to get into collage because of...
