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.

My experience at Black Hawk has been the time of my life. I am involved in sports, FFA, and lots of other activities. I am in student council which has helped me through high school.What I like about Black Hawk is being a small school and knowing everyone in the high school. I know everyone's names and we all get along and have respect for each other.

I had a lot of fun here. One thing I would change would be to add more academic organizations. Most of the teachers are very knowledgeable.

Black Hawk High school is a very well rounded school. It could use a few improvements, but the facility is trying to make these changes. I learned quite a bit from this facility, but needs a few more challenging classes, classes to prepare me to be out on my own in the future for college. Possibly like a home economics class, or a shop class to teach you about basic car knowledge (changing the oil, checking air in tires, etc.)
