Ingraham is extremely strong academically, especially with the IB program, and is widely regarded as one of the best in the city, but the school does not put much effort into including underrepresented groups in the program and, because of that, the school can feel very segregated at times. Students who are in the general education classes never get to interact with those in IB classes, and those from minority groups are never encouraged to take harder classes, while white students are. The school can be an incredibly enriching environment if you are willing to take the hardest classes offered and be very involved in the school, but for students who may not have the resources to take those hard classes and aren't encouraged to now, the experience feels very unfulfilling.
Ingraham High School is one of the few schools in Seattle, Washington that offers the IB Diploma Program. This brings in students from all over the city, and also divides the school from within in terms of diversity. There is a large push from the administration to make the IB more accessible for all students, but as of right now there is a distinct difference in demographic. The academics outside of the IB program at Ingraham are average at best. I have had a good experience at Ingraham, and my troubles are nothing to do with the school itself but more the program I chose to do.
Ingraham high school has brought me to a level of education I didn't think I'd ever get to. In middle school, my grades were awful, and I'm starting to think it was because of the teachers there who didn't support the kids as well. But at Ingraham high school, the teachers are all closely knit with the students, and relationships between everyone is healthy and thrives most days. The teachers always make it possible to reach out for help, and they always care about the student’s grades. Sure, some of the building is old and an eyesore compared to other Seattle public schools, but I think the minds and personalities within the building brings every student a sense of readiness for college. And for the kids who don’t want to go to college, there are many trade classes within the school to also provide different career paths. Overall, an amazing school I would recommend to people who really want to be prepared for college ahead.
