Kudos to all the Eastside High Schools that are in the top 5% of the nation. These top rankings of high schools are impressive. Our strong educational system has a great impact on the quality of life on the Eastside and the future of our children.

Special congratulations to the Bellevue Schools and Superintendent Mike Riley. Bellevue has done it again and has 4 high schools listed in the top schools in the nation.
