Narragansett High School Reviews
Rating 4.03 out of 5 97 reviews
I graduated this year from NHS with both pros and cons to share from my experience. NHS’s strongest feature is that it’s a very welcoming, accepting school where bullying isn’t tolerated at any level. Overall, the teachers here try to be connected with their students, always being there for extra help when needed. Although, many upper level administrators act as if school is more important than mental health and that students should be always prioritizing school no matter your personal situation. Throughout my time spent here, I was always either in all honors or AP classes. I found usually that the teachers teaching these classes were very stuck in their teaching styles despite the classes best efforts to speak out that the way they taught wasn’t helping the students actually retain information. Overall, I think NHS is a good school with teachers that care about their students, but the administration definitely needs work as even multiple teachers have expressed to their own students.
I love being at narragansett high school, the teachers are great and the opportunities our endless! I also love the extracurriculars.
I had an overall great experience at NHS. My teachers were encouraging and overall engaging. I felt there were plenty of opportunities for extra help from tutors, teachers, and administration in order to guarantee academic success. They also encouraged creativity and thinking.
One thing I would like the school to change is the funding for the art programs, especially the music and theater department. There are so many talented students and directors, it would be great to see a stronger push in terms of finances for the department. Additionally, adding an AP or honors art course would have greatly benefited students in the school as well (it could also attract more people to the school)
