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.

I graduated from this school back in 2014, i can say the teachers are willing to help you if you show you care and reach out. Not all of them but most of them are very caring and willing to stay after hours to help a student.

Huntington High School was a very good school and prepared me well for college, along with providing a good education and giving opportunities which I would not get elsewhere.

The teachers and administrators at Huntington High School are outstanding. They always have smiles on their faces and will always help you if need be. I did however have a teacher bump into me once and spill his coffee all over me. He didn't apologize and instead said "Aw man now I have to get a new coffee" The school has a very large arts program which I loved. They had everything from drawing and painting to video and photography. They are also one of the only schools to have a college advisor in the county.

My son transferred here from a Blue Ribbon School District this year going into his senior year. We regret not moving here sooner. The kids have been so welcoming. The Teachers are so caring too. Our old District put so much pressure on academics. My son is high honor roll & for the first time, look...
