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.

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.

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.

This is a pretty average high school in my experience. There are some very good teachers and some not so great teachers as well. Lots of people here can be friendly if you respect them while others can be pretty inconsiderate.

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