Northside School

We moved to Opelika from Auburn prior to having children. From day 1 we had concerns about the school system and on many occasions considered moving to Auburn once we had school aged children.Opelika city schools has provided an amazing opportunity for my children. From Southview to Northside and then to the middle school, both of my children have been challenged, supported and encouraged by the teachers and the staff.When my oldest went into the high school, I was concerned but her experience could not be better. She has every opportunity to thrive and the school has been great.For those parents that are involved with their kids and care about their kids, your children will be in a position of great success. For those parents that are looking for babysitters and do not care about the success of their children, your children will be well taken care of but they will not achieve what they could without your involvement.The best students at Opelika are no different then those that are the top students at neighboring Auburn. The school system is incredible. Do not move to Auburn just because of the schools. In addition Opelika lacks nothing of Auburn aside from the traffic, students and abundance of student housing.
