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.

I am not much of a music or art person, I'm more ready to focus onto college and want to major into psychology and early childhood and Edu. I'm in a psychology class already. This school is so caring, I'm going through a lot at home, but a lot of my friends are here to help me, and they know if I need anything, I can let them know. Otherwise, the best part of my experience is the teachers, certain teachers though. And the worst part is the kids lack of behavior, I can't tolerate it.

Lack of diversity. Very small, connected school. Not many opportunities for college planning. Administration lacks any communication with the students.

I like the kindness and support of the teachers. I'm Autistic but very high functioning. I needed a lot of help in the beginning of my high school career and not one teacher lost their patience with me. They were all so kind and understanding. Some of them went out of their way to help me adjust. Now i'm almost a straight A student taking AP and honors classes due to all of their support. One thing I would like to see my high school do is supply a little more time and help Seniors with College applications and Scholarships.

Years ago I would have said great but now I would say that the teachers are only there to get a paycheck and don't really care about the kids.

I graduated from HHS and was one of the only students in college that had high school organic chemistry. The science program is really strong and truly prepared me for my career in the health sciences. I moved back to this area after several years away because I wanted my children to go to this scho...
