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.

Things here at Hesperia High School are pretty average for most high schools I believe. My only problem is our discipline here needs improved, our staff is more worried about being friends with the students rather then their teacher or higher authority.

The school is very immature. The students are very disrespectful and arrogant. Although the teacher and principal try hard to keep them/us on track. The school is very good at having us safe at all times.

My experience at Hesperia high school has been okay. Hesperia is not a very diverse school and doesn't the greatest facilities. Hesperia is a very close school though where everyone knows each other and is very nice. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else because I've always grown up going to Hesperia schools.

My child has enjoyed accelerated classes and extra curricular activities that enhance learning. In general, there are opportunities to excel which is important for college bound students.

This school does not teach anything of value. Teachers gossip about other students and elitism is obvious. Anyone considering this school for their kids should consider other option. School of choice forms are available at any high school in the area. Shelby High School will even bus into Hesperia (...
