We’re Glad You’re Here

Welcome to The Northwest School, where you’ll be challenged in ways that stretch your worldview and deepen your self-understanding. By the time you graduate, you’ll be well prepared for your next journey. No matter where you're headed, it will be with confidence, integrity, and purpose.

Our interdisciplinary curriculum will teach you to read between the lines, draw connections between subjects, and provide you with a strong academic foundation. Thriving arts, athletics, and outdoor programs as well as a welcoming and supportive environment will enrich your academic experience. 

This holistic education approach transforms students into thoughtful citizens who can understand how macro and micro issues interplay, and have the tools and tenacity to work toward a better tomorrow.

Make Friends Locally and Globally

We’re the only independent school in Seattle that offers a boarding program. We offer both 5- and 7-day boarding options. 

As an international student, you’ll experience many aspects of culture and life in the United States. As a domestic student you’ll build lifelong friendships with students from around the world.
