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.

Good facilities. Good sports but politics plays apart in who plays sometimes. School offers a lot of AP, dual credit and trade opportunities. Good school spirit.

I enjoyed my time, got a great education, principle is amazing. I didn't have any bad teachers. Only problem was the security guards were annoying and locking bathrooms was a huge issue.

HHS was an amazing experience for me. It's a large high school with so many things to offer all students. Considering the area in which it's placed, the diversity of the student body was extremely varied. Everyone is welcomed in the same way, and everyone has the same level commitment and opportunities from the administration.
