The Lancaster Plan in Jones Ridge by Smith Douglas Homes
Dallas, GA 30132

Both of my kids love going to Northside! It's a smaller school with a family feel. It amazes me to read some of the negative reviews on here, and makes me wonder if they found the right Northside online (since there are many schools in GA with the same name). If you have an issue, teachers, the counselor and administrators will handle it if you let them know about it. Our kids receive an excellent education at Northside.

This school is build on polities, favoritism and bias. Academic and sports are a big joke! The school district also doesn’t care about the education, environment or success of the students!

Oh boy. Where to begin. Learning here is decent. Education heavily relies on if your teacher gives enough mind to actually teach. Many here simply just... Dont. Some teachers have just given us a textbook and have us figure the rest out ourselves. The current set of subs are a gamble if you're going to be treated like a prison inmate or as if you dont exist. (If you manage to get a sub that actually is respectful enjoy your one a year chance to!). As a student with multiple disabilities however getting accommodations was a relatively easy process. However teachers often times forget about these accommodations which either can lead to me having to remind them (which is fine, people are bound to forget things) or just sit there and suffer. Subs usually are understanding with accommodations THOUGH I have witnessed a sub argue with special needs students and unfair targeting of them. Safety at this school is horrible. There are supposed procedures to ensure safety but they are ineffective. Fights happen so often here students are unphased when they do break out. Its nearly weekly. This school does NOTHING about bullying and lies to parents about taking action. Students have been given harsher punishment for defending themselves rather than starting fights. Overall, if you want to be treated like every action you take is a personal offense against staff and want crippling mental health, sign right up!
