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.

My four years here at Huntington Beach High School has been so memorable. There have been so many great experiences that have shaped the person that I am today. My favorite part about this school is the community. The admin and the staff are beyond helpful and compassionate. There is not much that I can talk about that would disappoint me about this school. The only thing that I wish could change is the parking situation so that all students could freely park at school without any problems.

Going into my senior year at this point. School isn't terrible definitely some interesting things here and there. Teachers are okay but I've always been lucky with mine besides a few.

I'd like to see more support for the visual arts programs. Often they are pushed aside or not taken seriously. And i feel like there could be more of a promise to fulfill the promises that they make

APA, sports, academics- all positive experience! I wasn’t impressed with few teachers, they were still good teac...
Well, the students start off excited about school and learning but that doesn't last long. The school is very focused on sports and more importantly VARSITY sports and how many championships the school wins. The teachers like to remind the children how privileged they are and what a privileged commu...
This school is a typical high school but, with better drugs. Our son was able to navigate his way around but the administration (namely the principal) is a lemming without any actual policy. If parents nag him enough, he'll cave to whatever they want.
