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 love this place. Everybody has been very nice to me and the admin and teachers are very approachable and responsive. There are no issues that I can say can be fixed by just this school. The students can be cliquey at times but overall it seems there is a place for everyone and everyone is able to intermingle for the most part.

I think they should have a better ESL program every school has one and in Pascack hills the ESL program is lacking

As a parent and grandparent I have had my children and grandchildren flourish at Hills, particularly in the performing arts. Its academics and co-curricular meet or exceed even the best public or private institutions.

Excellent courses, teachers and administration - particularly for Honors and AP courses. Great balance of academics and extra-curricula activities. Excellent for college prep for the more/most selective colleges.
