I think that what made or broke the school is the specific people in your class because some times were better because my class was better but some other classes ruined certain aspects of the school.

Highland Park High School is a very diverse school with a liberal mindset. It has a variety of resources, clubs/sports, and academic courses to suit each student's needs.

GreatSchools Reviews
2/12/2025
This High School turned out to be such a disappointment as did the Middle School. Many of the teachers are burned out, the students are out of control in classes, which makes it impossible for interested or motivated students.

Nasty environment roach infestation, vulgar language, and violence honestly would not recommend, principles r really nice but the students and teachers not doing anything about the vulgar language is terrible.

I feel extremely grateful to be able to attend and graduate from Highland Park High School. Not only are the students kind and supportive of each other, the teachers are also dedicated to your success. I have met my most influential mentors and lifelong friends. Without HPHS, I would not be where I...

My kid says it was one of the best decisions. HPHS offers them opportunities to excel and prepared them well for their college jo...
