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 was ok it wasn't the best the food was horrible and I always brought my lunch to bring some good food rather than their food. The teacher was fine some of them were nice but others were just horrible and would ruin your day the one-way hallways were horrible they were so annoying and so many people were late because of this and the teacher was so strict on it. the only thing that I look forward to at T. A Howard was basketball I had so much fun on basketball with my friends. T.A Howard isn't the worst school there are a lot of bad things but there are some cool things so I would recommend Howard.

It's ok, not the best but not the worst. The students are good, the staff is as well. There isn't anything special about it.

The student here are so mean. My son has been getting racial slur and threats about him being Asian. My son has been getting sad every day after he joined this school. The teachers here are great, but they are way to kind. I wouldn’t recommend this school.
