The teachers seem to really care about the students. The have a large class number, multiple times a day, yet try to give individual attention to each student. Especially those that seem to need help.

I Think NPMS is a good school. It isn't what a school looks like that makes the school. It takes parental involvement on a daily basis. You could have the newest of everything but if you don't have the parents and staff working together then it's not going to be. This is my sons first year and I was

I am currently in the 9th grade and I attended NPMS for three years.People may say that the teachers don't care about how the student does that they're just there to 'pick up a pay check',well there just wrong.Every year that I was there,my teachers knew my personality and if I came in upset about something
... Read more they would ask me if something was wrong.All those teachers are there to help someone and not just to get paid.The teachers may make mistakes and forget to sign an agenda every now and then,but they are human and do make mistakes.I hate to think that these people who are unsatisified could be the kids who got into trouble during the time they were at this school.The communication is wonderful and I wouldn't want to go to any other school no matter how high it was rated by the government.They do an excellent job!

I am going into the tenth grade and attended NPMS for three straight years. I am the 2002-2003 Mustang of the Year, meaning that I am the best of the best. I feel that it is disgraceful to the school and the surrounding communities to have a bad perception of one of our schools. Although our school

Read more board may argue about the year's budget, the office personnel may get carried away talking about things unrelated to the workplace, and you might see a dustybunny or two under a desk, I can guarantee you that it is the same in workplaces all across America. This school is not in the below average performance rating given out by the federal government; I would much rather put my trust in qualified officials that know what they are talking about, rather than believe kids that are tired of school.

I have 2 kids that went to this school. the one thing I have noticed is the office personal have the kids do all of the work while that talk to each other.

The staff at the school do not commuticate with the parents at all, even when the teacher says okay I'll sign his assignment book. They never do or call, write or email the parents. They are there to collect a pay check and thats it. Read less
