5/24/2025
The best parts are definitely the people and the teacher if you have a good one. The worst part is the food and the safety around the school is kinda bad.
1/28/2025
Rainier Beach is a very diverse and community oriented school. But I would like to see more communication regarding resources/ programs and college readiness.
12/8/2024
Overall the school is pretty mid but the education there is great and so are most of the teachers they help you when needed and some just give you a hard time because you probably don't pay attention in class

I graduated from RB and have gone on to college and graduated with my degree. I have greatly benefitted from my experience at RB and would not be the person I am today or would have accomplished everything I have if it wasn’t for the real life training and development of the students, staff, coaches...

IM a 10th grader at this school and it is a really good school!!!! People are saying bad things about it like how theres alot of fghts and shooting, but that aint true its apeaceful place and that was from the past. The teachers and staff care about you and the students are chill.
6/20/2011
This high school is going downhill fast. It was already in crisis, and this last school year has been the worst yet. There is no accountability for students' behavior. The administrative team and dean of students have all been fired or transferred, and 90% of the staff requested transfers. It is imp...
