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.

To start with the best parts of the school first would be the push by the principle to make the school a safer and more caring place. with weekly webinars promoting mental health awareness and positivity. The teachers I have had have all been relativly good a few of them have been great to have and very helpful with understanding the class and subjects. now to start with the bad, most of it is just the student body. with bathrooms being places where students seem to vape every passing time. not to mention when they decide to just break off the soap despensers or clog the urinals and toilets. to say the least the bathrooms are a horrible place to be.

I do feel that Howell High School has a great culture and diversity, but it could improve on the quality of their clubs.

My favorite parts of high school were finding out what I enjoyed doing through the involvement of many clubs and classes. I then built on these throughout my high school career into leadership positions and into more challenging classes. The best part of high school was meeting many great people and experiencing so many fun things with these people as a group to connect. The worst part was staying up super late or not going to sleep sometimes to get work done for classes I did not enjoy. I have been pretty sleep-deprived trying to stay on top of everything and I am not sure yet if it was worth it.

My teacher was upset when I was wearing my mask in class and the vice principal took my mask when I was wearing it in the hall, which in my opinion is unjustified and unnecessary. Further more the school security guard went into a class I was in (my teacher said I could wear my mask) and took my oth...

I was provided with a outstanding education here. I continued on earning a post graduate degree. The opportunity is there if students want it. But, like anything else I life, it takes personal dedication, and work. So, for those reviewers on here blaming the school because his or her child was faili...

I had a great experience at Howell High School. I had some really awesome teachers who not only cared about me as a student but as a person. This school is very big and I love how many different class options were available. I would definitely recommend this school to others!
