By far the most cruel and unfair school ever. This school has absolutely no justice and even innocent students suffer here. For instance my son was given the punishment of having to clean up trash for wearing a sweater that was black but as per the school pe rules not solely black. On the other hand students wearing adult costumes on Halloween got nothing but a warning. Extremely degrading and that too just for the color of his sweater. He had to miss class's time to sit with other students who really did things worthy of detention afterwards. I am deeply disappointed in this school and advise no one sends their students there. It may look beautiful outside but it really is nothing more than a place where being innocent makes you the viticim.

I, as a student of norris middle, have had an amazing experience at norris, there’s many hands on projects between classes, and the teachers here actually make an effort to make lessons enjoyable, I couldn’t have had a better experience in middle school, I haven’t had this much fun in years, now that schools ended I already feel the urge to return. Making friends their seems difficult at first but couldn’t be easier, i myself being someone who a lot of people know, but not necessarily popular found making new friends easy, as well as fitting into a clique of people. As every middle school should, they Don’t baby you through everything they put in the maximum effort into teaching students responsibility. In conclusion, for any parent wondering if they should enroll their child in this school, i recommend, from the variety of people, activities, classes, and overall acceptance this school is a 10/10.

We have transferred our kids from our home district to Veterans. Norris District and Veterans have a better program overall. Our oldest is in second grade and he is thriving. He gets excited about learning and getting involved. The teachers and principal seem to really care about the community as well.
