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.

Overall, I have had a great time at Howard High School. For being such a small school, there is a vast amount of opportunities for students. Sometimes teachers are not the greatest, but all in all, I have enjoyed my time here.

I really love going to Howard High School. It has is pros and cons. The pros are you get more one on one time with the teachers and a con would be it is a small town and me personally I don't like it very much but some people do. I love that Howard is very inviting and has lots of encouragement towards the students to succeed in sports and in academics and sports
