Summary

Newport Senior High School is a large public school in Bellevue, Washington, serving about 1,850 students in grades 9–12 within the Bellevue School District. It is one of Washington’s strongest comprehensive high schools, ranking 5th out of 396 schools for 2025–2026 and earning a five-star rating. The school’s location in the Bellevue area also places it near several highly regarded schools, making comparisons especially useful for families evaluating local options.

Newport’s latest academic results are excellent: 91.04% of students are proficient in English language arts, 82.93% in math, and 81.34% in science. These results are well above both district and statewide rates, and Newport leads nearby comprehensive schools such as Interlake Senior High School and Bellevue High School in all three subjects. Math is a particular strength, exceeding Mercer Island High School and coming just below the smaller, specialized International School. Newport’s math performance has also improved notably in the most recent year, while science remains strong but has varied more from year to year.

Families may also value Newport’s 95.5% graduation rate and 2.7% dropout rate for 2024–2025. Graduation was higher and dropout was lower than the district and state averages, as well as the results reported for Interlake and Bellevue High. Mercer Island remains a close overall peer, ranking 2nd statewide with slightly stronger English and science results, but Newport has a larger enrollment and stronger math performance. Newport also ranks highly statewide for several reported student groups, including English learners, students receiving special education services, and students from low-socioeconomic-status households. The main trends to watch are a gradual rise in dropout rates and fluctuations in science results.

NHS is a rigorous high school, with many courses which suit different rigors. There are many clubs and tutoring is available for struggling students. We are excited that our 2 kids went there. Close Quote

Newport High School in Bellevue, Wa is the equivalent to a public college prep High school. It is academically rigorous while also offering a very wide range of social and community service oriented clubs and activities. It also offers some incredible specialized programs in Computer networking (CISCO program) with certifications, Culinary Programs and also a great program for kids that are on the spectrum of Autism. My oldest graduated from Newport (NOT at the top of her class) and returned home from her first year of college wondering why her peers (from around the country) had such a difficult time their freshman year of college. Newport prepared her so well, that it made the transition easy! Close Quote
