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.

I love how they try to get everyone involved in activities such as sports, spirit days, and so much more. This school is filled with students who want to learn and be involved in activities. I love personally spirit days and playing soccer at my school. My coach who is also a teacher is involved with all the girls in the team and motivate us to do better in practice to win games between other schools that is what I love about my school.

Class of 2013 here! My advice is to take advantage of all the amazing programs at HGHS. I'm so proud of my old school and I'm not surprised HGHS gets top rankings every year. I actually felt prepared for college and THAT IS A BIG DEAL for STEM majors because professors have high expectations of you...

This school is fake in every way. The administrators are annoying, can't stand them. You're looking at a school who cares more about uniform than academic matters :), hence the falseness, trying to look good when they aren't. The counselors are so useless.
