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.

HCHS will open a lot of doors for you if you listen, many of the teachers are more helpful and sweet. HCHS is a very nice school and helps you accomplish lots of things in highschool and out of highschool.

There has been a very strong lack of diversity throughout the school and I would like to see more differences.

school is a bit cramped since all the middleschoolers have to come here. wonderful funding for football, but they completely abandoned esports. easy to start clubs and most teachers are very caring. food is average, but they always have two options in case you dont like the main course. always trying to connect with students, even if they fall flat sometimes
