Outstanding programs and options for good students to exceed With parental support Northbridge is great for any student to succeed.

The community needs to know what is happening behind the scenes in our schools. As the recently departed Facilities Manager, I am sounding the alarm:Taxpayer Waste: I reported the theft of $20,000 in district equipment, but leadership ignored it and refused to file police reports.Safety Hazards: The Middle School auditorium is being used despite a collapsing ceiling and structural decay. It is a major liability.Unlicensed Work: The district consistently uses unlicensed labor for dangerous electrical projects, putting our kids at risk of fire and injury.Zero Oversight: When I tried to implement safety checklists and SOPs, I was told, “We don’t like checklists around here.”Our tax dollars are being wasted, and our children are being placed in unsafe buildings. It is time for the School Committee to demand a full audit of the administration and maintenance departments.

This school is being investigated for several special education violations and civil rights Violations. If your child is at all different, I would not suggest attending. From the reviews, I would say that nothing has changed at this school in over a decade. They value sports above education, and the policies they enact to remove bullying perpetuate the problem and do not help. Their one amazing guidance counselor does not make up for an entire staff of adult bullies and incompetence. They are extremely behind on human rights issues and general education law, let alone sped law. Do yourself a favor and don't send your child here.
