My children love this school and it is full of all different ethnicities and has the best teachers who care for your children

North Central is an okay school, depending on what you're looking for and what support you want for your child. I graduated 8th grade at North Central in May 2022, and went there for 7th and 8th grade. The main reason I gave the school 3 stars was the teachers and lack of control they had over the school. Throughout my time at North Central, the teachers allowed students to be on their phones during class. Students would watch TikToks, text, and even record others without their consent. Those videos would be later posted onto social media sites. Although this may seem like an obvious problem, the teachers did not seem to care. Many students did not pay attention, as they were listening to their Airpods or using their phones. During group projects, I would often be the only one working, and the rest of my group would do the bare minimum. There is absolutely no academic rigour whatsoever. All through junior high, the classwork was below 7th/8th grade level. There isn't much to say about this. It could be helpful if your child needs more academic support, but it could be frustrating for more advanced students.The students are very entitled and think they can get away with everything. An example of this is the bullying at North Central. Students in my class have made TikTok videos making fun of our peers. During my time at this school, I experienced bullying multiple times. I informed teachers of the situation, but they did not talk to the students causing the problems. This behavior is not acceptable, but the teachers at North Central do not seem to care.If you would like to send your child to a school where they feel ignored and not cared about, North Central is the school for you.
