The Department of Education says the grades are meant “to provide a snapshot of how each school performed during the previous academic year,” according to its school letter grades page. The grade combines indicators scored from 1 to 5: student achievement, academic growth, growth of the highest-need students and, for high schools, college and career readiness.

Northeast High earned a B for 2024-25, the latest grades published, with an overall score of 3.7 out of 5 in the state’s letter grade file.
