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.

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 have personally had a great experience at HHS, but I feel that it is due to taking all of the AP classes (that are usually taught by the good teachers). However, after talking to friends who attend other highschools, I've noticed that our school does not offer many rigorous courses are diverse clubs. We also have no diversity, with only 4 black students in the school and no black teachers. It is a good school for my rural environment, but not the best.

The teachers are laid back and chill, unlike HMS. It has a better environment, and administrators know how to make the school run smoothly.

When stating if I would recommend this school, it is not a matter of "yes" or "no". It is a "depends". It depends on the student. If they are very academic, or athletic, well then yes. This is a great school for that. Unfortunately it is not a school for those who are the "norm". There are some awes...

Heritage High School is the top school in all of Catoosa County, and it isn't just me saying so. Out of the three total high schools in Catoosa County, Heritage High scores at the very top in academic level, testing higher than most in the surrounding counties. The campus of Heritage High is top not...
