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've lived in Newberg Oregon my entire life. Not once did anything prepare me for collage and I've had to go out of my way to get help. Im currently taking online classes through my high school because I had a displeasure. I hope collage life is different. I've had mixed emotions about cheering all four years of high school but it taught me many life lessons that I will use to better myself in the future.

Little to no access to AP classes, in recent years they've been continuing to drop said classes too. Good performing arts program, bad funding though. They've been cutting a lot of programs and teachers recently due to the school districts $16 million debt, accumulated over ~1 year.

Newberg High School severely lacks educational opportunities. The school district continues to take away advanced classes and allows students to take AP classes without proper preparation. There is no college prep and most students stay in state for college, as going out of state is framed as impossible.

This school is more concerned with emancipation at their rally rather than teaching the kids the basics but they need to know when I get out of school

I am in the 11th grade and currently attend Newberg High School for my 2nd year.I believe that it is one of the best schools in Oregon if not the United States and I'm not just blowing hot air right now, I truly do mean it.
