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.

Definitely enjoyable being in a small school. The teachers are fun, they care about your learning experience and are willing to help you succeed. There is a career coordinator.
2.0 Senior

I have been a student at Newport my entire life and it's quite boring and plain here. We're a rural school in Pennsylvania so there's not a lot of excitement in or around our school. There's little to no diversity here, which leads to a lot of racism around the school. Much of it with no genuine consequence. I did enjoy the teachers here they were all very kind. I would like to see a bigger change in diversity and overall behavior in the school, and proper consequences to people's actions.
5.0 Works Here
2/11/2019
The high school has been a great place to work. There are many supports here and I see students, staff, and the community working together on many issues. We have a wide range of offerings for a small school.

The school is absolutely pathetic. I have had many issues with my son's school, too many to list, actually.
