The teachers and princalpal really care about the students who attend here! My son has went her since Pre-K and is not headed to 4th! Everyone knows who he is and I feel like he is safe. My son has high abilities and is always challenged and encouraged by his teachers and other staff that doesn't even have him in class. My daughter is bused to another school (because she has autism) that has a higher rating on here but I don't feel like the teachers care as much as this school does. I wish she could attend here.

NSHS has, and is, making great progress! Beside the hard working, dedicated staff, NS is a great cultural experience where anyone willing can earn a top rate education. GreatSchools rating does not take into account the percentages of English language learners, over 10%, and the number of special education students in the district functional skills program at NS? Those programs add to the diversity and student experiencing other cultures and under privileged. The kids work to help each other. NS have a very large number of college credit courses, access to vocational careers/internships and many supports to improve academic and life skills. The administrators have very high expectations and hold the kids to them and seem to be good leaders. The band program is tops in FWCS and have been to the state finals 11 of the last 12 years even though they don't have the resources of the more well to do suburban schools. Yes, there are some rude and unmotivated students but these seem to be declining at a huge rate. The athletics programs have worked hard with there athletes to be good students and great citizens. Student leadership in the school is on the rise!! I recommend North Side to anyone who is willing to work hard and earn a diploma in a diverse school.

It is fun principle is the best
