Ingraham High School

Ingraham High School is a public high school, serving grades 9–12 in the Haller Lake neighborhood of Seattle, Washington, United States. Opened in 1959, the school is named after Edward Sturgis Ingraham, the first superintendent of the Seattle Public Schools. Since 2002, Ingraham has been an International Baccalaureate school, and also offers programs such as the Academy of Information Technology. Since the 2011 school year, Ingraham has also offered an accelerated model of the International Baccalaureate program (IBx), modeled on a similar program in Bellevue School District, allowing students in Seattle Public Schools' highly capable cohort (formerly Accelerated Progress Program).

On May 10, 2011, Seattle Schools Superintendent Susan Enfield fired the principal, Martin Floe. A week later, on May 18, after a series of protests, Enfield reversed her decision and Floe was reinstated.

On November 8, 2022, a shooting took place at the school, killing one student. A suspect in the shooting was taken into police custody shortly after the shooting occurred, and was charged with first-degree firearms violations and premeditated murder a week later.

On November 14, 2022 Ingraham and other Seattle Public Schools students had a walk out, asking for increased training for security on de-escalation and anti-racism, as well as updated safe storage laws and an increase in the number of mental health counselors.

The IB program at Ingraham is led by program coordinator Mr. Guy Thomas. This programs provides the students of Ingraham High School with the opportunity to take advanced classes that can be used for college credits. While the IB Program at Ingraham High School has been criticized due to a lack of diversity, Ingraham High School continues to offer IB as an option.

Under the direction of the International Education department, for the 2013–2014 school year, Ingraham's official title changed to Ingraham International School to signify the first year of the Language Immersion pathway being implemented at the school and to strengthen the connection with one of its main feeder schools, Hamilton International Middle School.

Ingraham competes in WIAA Class 3A and is a member of the Metro League in District Two[broken anchor].
