As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
