This school is busted. Ill prove it, First if your parents aren't in the PTA program, you get detention for anything. But if you pay the school, You don't get in trouble, how do I know? Because someone I know who has at least 4 tardies a week doesn't get detention. He told me "I usually have at least 4 tardies in a week." then I asked him "Do you usually get detention?" He replied "No, why?" Then I explained to him "If you get 3 tardies in a row, you get detention."then he is flabbergasted on what I said. then he states "But they never call me up for detention?" Then after putting the puzzle pieces together I realized that the school only cares about money. Not the kids. Take me down and I'll expose this to the school board. Take me down Casimir.

There's so many good things to say about this school. We specifically located a house near this school in order for my child to attend school here. The school had good ratings five years ago and it's still going strong today. If you want everyone to know your kid and not feel lost amongst too many kids, this school is it. Everyone knows eachother and welcomes new kids. The school is small and you will feel comforted that the staff watches out for the safety and well being of your child. Bullying is quickly stopped and the older kids are taught to set an example for the younger ones. Academics get tougher as the years go by, but the teachers support you and quick to provide assistance. You will have to do your part too. This school is a lot about creating college bound kids and stresses the importance of it from such a young age. Lastly, again this school feels like a small community. There are tons of activities, celebrations, and the kids love it. Enjoy it, because the years went by so fast, and sad to say good bye.

Such a fantastic well-rounded school! Proud to attend North High!
