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.

At Heritage High School, I've had a well-rounded and busy experience. I balance challenging academics, like AP Government, with leadership roles in extracurriculars. I'm the section leader for clarinet in the marching band, and I'm involved in NHS, B-Team, and the Chick-fil-A Leadership Academy. I plan to study history at ETSU and pursue a career as a historian and I feel like Heritage has really prepared me for my future

The teachers at Heritage High School are ones who leave an impact on you. Every teacher is attentive to their students, the counselors make sure you choose the best options for your future, and the principles stay engaged with each student. While I feel I did not get everything I would have liked for my future, many classes were not available, I was able to choose the next best option with the guidance of the staff.

Made incredibly low grades my year and a half of being there, switched to homeschooling and I'm now making straight A's. The school is filled with a bunch of morons who like to interrupt lectures just to become a class clown; they were never punished but ruined my grades. Five out of every fifteen g...

I'm currently a student at HHS and I must say that most of the classes your teacher doesn't care about you. There are a few teachers that care about if you pass or fail, like the conditioning coach really does care about you. The rest of the teachers just care about your test scores.
