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.
Good academics and good athletics. The school is very "vanilla" in my opinion: it isn't really known for anything in particular besides being a good school. By far the worst part of IHS is how separate students in the IB program are from students outside of the program--particularly in grades 11 and 12. The IB program is also entirely white/Asian, with virtually zero diversity. The school has done little to combat the inequities between these different programs. Teachers are also painfully average, especially those for the lower grades. The IB teachers are generally very good.
Overall I think Ingraham is a fairly good school, however there are a few glaring issues that could be solved in order to create a better learning environment for every student. The IB program at Ingraham is predominantly white students and IHS administration does nothing to change that. Furthermore, the counselors are very overworked and unable to be totally helpful in the college application process while also helping all of the other students of other grades. Finally, there are a few teachers employed here that the admin knows are problematic yet refuses to take action against them. The gender neutral bathrooms were a big step as well as the wide variety of inclusive clubs, sports and organizations.
