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.

Scott Jacobs was very abusive to me. He would make fun of me for my disability by mocking my voice and squinting his eyes. He had embarrassed me in front of the class and punched me in the stomach. It is a disgrace this piece of crap is still teaching. Hope someone reports him.

Heritage High School is a good school for being a public school, It has many clubs to offer and many of the teachers here are helpful and understanding other than a few. There is many after school activities to do and overall after the almost 4 years I've been here I've enjoyed my time.

Heritage High School is an amazing school to attend and one of the best schools in the Saginaw Township. The thing that I love most about it is the school's inclusiveness. School spirit is a huge deal at Heritage and it really does bring people together. The teachers care a lot and actually want to see the students succeed. The only bad part of my experience at Heritage was the fighting that began after sports games. I would like to see security change in Heritage as I believe every student should have a right to safety in school and after school events.

If your child has a disability don't send them there, they'll try and get the child out of the school as quickly as they can. Also switched schools for my daughter due to multiple issues of sexual harassment. School doesn't allow children's counselors to come

Decent school but doesn't set students up for the future. Skills like innovation and imagination aren't taught. Classes are filled with busywork and doesn't properly assess ones knowledge. The counselors are counseling many students at one time, which has multiple negative impacts. It seems like all...

This school is way too big. Children who aren't in the AP classes are left behind. It seems that Heritage wants to compete with SASA, but that isn't what they are supposed to be: They are supposed to be a public school which is concerned for all students.

Easily the top High School in the area for academics and athletics. The teachers are great, the IB Program is something that no other schools around offer, and the quality of learning is above the area's other schools.
