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.

When it comes to Harrison I would say that there are definitely a lot of ups and downs. But other than that it's a good space for you to be open minded and to share your creativity.

I love the teachers who are always willing to be there for their students. Especially to those who really need a support system, they never fail to help the students. I would like to change the way they have dress code.

It was a nice high school to attend. I was involved in all fine arts possible and it truly formed me into the person I am today. I had some amazing teachers who inspired me to keep going and follow my dreams. There were also some questionable teachers and food, but overall, it was a good experience.

Horrendous, my child gets bullied there, the staff doesn’t do anything about it, the staff doesn’t care about the food, food is uncooked. School is dirty, students aren’t under control and just cause havoc everytime according to my child.Horrible I’d give it a 0 but I can’t.

I am currently a junior at Harrison & I hate it. I don't get bullied, it has nothing to with any of the kids there. My problem is with administrators, they are never understanding, caring, or helpful. They only care about getting their job done as quick and easy as possible. With that being said the...
