Hillgrove High School, Public high school in Powder Springs, US
Hillgrove High School is a public secondary school in Powder Springs that serves students in grades 9 through 12. The facility includes modern classrooms, well-equipped science laboratories, sports facilities, and specialized spaces dedicated to performing arts instruction.
The school opened in 2006 on former farmland donated by Harry Hill and Harriet Hargrove Hill, who had previously used the property for raising cattle and horses. This gift of land made the construction of the new facility possible.
The Naval Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps program has earned state championships while the performing arts department maintains three separate orchestra ensembles.
The school offers more than twenty Advanced Placement courses alongside career and technical education pathways in areas such as programming, engineering graphics, and audio-video technology. It is located in a suburban setting that is easily accessible by vehicle.
The school's name blends the surnames of the two donors, and their family continues to provide scholarships for high-achieving students today. This ongoing connection between the name and generosity shapes the experience of many students.
