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.

Although I believe the teachers do care about our education, they do not care about our well being. Students get bullied every single day for being different and they do nothing.. I would love if teachers started paying attention to both sides

I have always gone to Howe. I love going to a small school but there are a few things I would like to see change. Because Howe is so small, everyone knows each other, and it is hard for new people to feel welcome. I would love to see my school open up to these people and not treat them like "outsiders".

Me experiences in Howe were very diverse. I was not too involved, but I also was not uninvolved. One thing that really makes Howe unique is the comradary within specific groups such as band and sports. I was in the band and was really transformed by how generous the directors were and how committed the students were, which rubbed off on me. I would choose to do it all over again, so I can really focus more on my grades and have a game plan set up for my colleve life.
