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.

My experience up to this point has been very good at Heritage High School. I cannot say that I've had an issue with this school at all. I believe the best part about this school is the teachers. I have had teachers who have motivated me and helped me throughout my high school career. I also believe that this school does have to work more where the administration needs to be more aware and more helpful in student situations.

Heritage High school did great for what it promised to do: Give students a high school education and prepare them for college. Unfortunately, it didn't do a whole lot more.

I would like to see more diversity. I was ready to graduate and move on with life. Due to COVID online learner was great. It was hard transitioning back to in person classes. I liked my teachers.
