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.

Harmony school of Advancement is great for college readiness but if you want to have a social life during high school this school is not for you if you want help reaching your future and be best prepared I recommend attending.

The best part about HSA is the diversity it is majority Black and Latino so you will for sure find your people. The worst part is probably the schools system it's super outdated and afecta a lot of students personally like not using the back stairwell makes the halls dangerously crowded and hard to get to class as well as unfair punishments. I wish the school would be more open to change.

Opportunites for STEM but doesn't really allow us to go explore when it comes to our paths. Mostly offers STEM programs which is good. Clubs are the bare minimum, doesn't have much course options and the school facility isn't the best but it works.
