Newington High School

Great School! THANK YOU to the wonderful staffs at NHS for working really hard with my son to ensure he succeeds. I pray the upcoming school year goes as smooth as it can go. It really takes a village to ensure my son succeeds, THANK YOU all!!!

I was a student here and I was pretty happy with the teaching quality after coming from a different location. Definitely helped me get into STEM by giving my a solid background in math.

Great School with great teacher involvement I always receive email responses when reaching out to teachers or administrators. The schools goes above and beyond they offer free math help during and after school. The music/chorus dept / teacher is amazing. There is a wide selection of courses and clubs and just this year students can earn college credits for free apparently.

Newington High School, overall, is an extraordinary school. Having experience in other towns in the state, this high school offers many great courses and extracurricular activities I did not see in other towns. Personally, I believe that the majority of the staff are very well prepared and helpful. Most students show effort and determination to succeed. The students in the Newington Public School system, I find, very receptive and welcoming to newcomers. There are a few things that could be worked on, though. The process of filtering into AP classes really needs some improvement, the changing testing program could also use some stability, perhaps some minor superficial improvements throughout the building could also be made, and better trained staff would be nice to have in some parts of athletics. But other than that, I find it very hard to look for other areas to improve upon. Again, a great school overall.
