Niche Reviews
11/1/2024
Great school, not so great culture. Wouldn't recommend if you want a traditional high school experience.
1/2/2024
This school says that they prepare students for college and life. I have found this to be untrue. If students are attempting to attend rigorous and prestigious institutions, the Seattle Academy work culture does not prepare you. It is extremely easy to get good grades without hard work or any actual learning.
6/27/2023
The teachers and classes are mostly great, as are the arts and athletic offerings. There isn't a strong community, which is something the school should work on.
GreatSchools Reviews
2/2/2026
SaaS does not provide a safe environment for students or staff with diverse political views. SAAS is overly one-sided (far left) in its opinions and institutional structures, and thereby crushes and silences both independent and conservative viewpoints and opinions. The SAAS culture, staff, and stud...
3/13/2022
Seattle Academy has not been transparent about dealing with accusations against a current member of the faculty. The school’s 2016 policy stated that faculty cannot maintain personal social media contact with current students. This teacher maintained personal Facebook friendships with current studen...
3/20/2018
SAAS has been an excellent choice for my son. The teachers, which for me made the difference for us, have been outstanding. The curriculum has been challenging as you would expect for a college prep school but for the most part the homework has been manageable. He has focused on math and science cla...
5/1/2017
SAAS is consistently one of the top 5 private schools in Puget Sound. The curriculum is challenging but fair and offers depth in science, technology, robotics, engineering, arts, and mathematics. Our son is a junior this year and the college counseling is top notch. Other than the cost of schools in...
