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 overall experience with Heritage high school is good, and we could use some changes in my personal view. Although I'll say that the school has amazing help for when you need it, I love how they help you with scholarships, and colleges applications. They be having so many different meetings, and volunteering ideas. It is difficult walking through the crowds. I feel like people should stay at one side of the hall instead of taking the whole space when walking down the halls. We should get more time walking to class due because of that situation like at least 8 minutes instead of 5 to give us time to use the bathroom and walk to class. Do what we got to do before class, so that way it could be easier for us to focus on class, not having to think about using the bathroom during class and distributing in class while the teacher is teaching. The bathrooms in the school could honestly use some help because, in where the cafeteria is I don't be using the bathroom there.

I have enjoyed my time at Heritage High School. I am grateful for the opportunities I had with playing wrestling and football. The teachers were always helpful and flexible which I appreciated.

Heritage High School is considered the best school in Rockdale County, academically and performing arts wise. There are a few teachers here who have absolutely no clue what they're doing but for the majority, the teachers here are pretty cool. I would say that we are progressively getting more strict as time goes on, which is a little concerning. I would like school to actually feel like school, and not....jail?

An exceptional school that offers a unique opportunity to take specialty fine and performing arts classes that are only offered at a few other schools in the state. While the school building might be older and there might not be as many 'bells and whistles' when it comes to new technology, what is t...

My daughter has done exceptionally well she is on the same course track as if we continued living in NJ and her attending a blue ribbon school. I will say I had to advocate for her to get the classes she ought to have been in from the begining. She will be starting 10th grade.

My daughter is taking AP prep classes as a freshman and has a 3.8 GPA. I am satisfied . Coming from a northern state it is very important that she maintains a sound curriculum. I find the school lack parent, teacher student involvement. This is very important to me and found that my older 5 children...
