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.

Very competitive amongst students. It was a constant competition for who performed best and how to bolster one's college application. I wish the school would speak about other occupations, paths in life, or trade school to broaden student's mindsets.

There are many great things about Newport: excellent AP teachers, a history of strong science and music programs, dedicated families and motivated students. Unfortunately, the teachers-union's toxic culture (Bellevue Education Association) has recently seeped into Newport as it has seeped into other...
