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.

They expelled me for having a bipolar episode. Mental health is not considered by them at all. Just give out punishments. No need to help children.

I enjoy PHHS. Our school has a diverse population and many exciting opportunities, such as the technical school and the Roanoke Valley Governor School on our campus. An area for improvement would be safety and equity. I appreciate that our school district supports the arts. My involvement in the band and the theatre programs has really enhanced my time at PHHS.

My experience at Patrick Henry High School has been, for the most part, very positive. I was able to build a very strong group of friends as well as good relationships with my teachers. My teachers were very supportive. They were also able to provide me with extra help and guidance with topics discussed in class when I asked for it. As for extracurriculars, I made so many lasting memories with the organizations I was a part of. All in all, I will always look back on my time at Patrick Henry as time well spent.
