I have really enjoyed my experience at Raisbeck Aviation High School. For one, it has all of the amazing benefits of a small school - teachers are attentive, caring, and are flexible to meet your needs as a student. If you are struggling in a class they make sure to go out of their way to help and assist you. The school is the #3 high school in Washington State and #2 in STEM high schools in the state. There is a huge emphasis on STEM, and as the name suggests, on aviation as well (though it should be noted that the school is a great opportunity even for those who aren't hugely interested in aviation and aerospace). Clubs like First Robotics, Science Olympiad, Solar Car, and International Space Settlement Design Challenge perform expertly at competitions, consistently going to state and even internationals. The most impressive aspect of the school is it's career preparedness programs - networking as a high schooler is so incredibly useful.
My experience has been pretty positive at aviation so far regarding my academic experiences. Classes are a nice size, teachers are understanding & helpful, etc. However, my mental health has been all over the place while attending aviation, and I would have liked to see more check-ins about mental health as a regular thing. The environment can be very toxic regarding grades/personal stats and this environment is awful for students personal views of themselves as well as their mental health. I think advisory time should be spent by having more thoughtful discussions around mental health and ways to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, etc. In addition, although aviation is a relatively diverse school in terms of students, this is not reflected in the staff and teachers. There MUST be a lot of updating the way things are done and addressed (i.e: culturally competent curriculum & staff), and there needs to be representation in staff, by hiring more BIPOC teachers and staff ASAP!!!!
Quite a small and welcoming school that has continued to be a place for students to congregate and become quite acquainted with each other. The community is very open and diverse in culture and beliefs. The teachers are extremely supportive and willing to give back to their community. The learning environment is rich and fun; although it can become stressful, everyone is there for each other and willing to help you. Overall it is a wonderful school.
