Northwestern High School

We feel extremely lucky to be part of this neighborhood gem. A caring staff, diverse student body, and warm parent community, this is a very special school.

Hi, I'm dad of Pre -K student. This school have very weak management and they give me wrong information about my son.we went back home for our religious trip. before our trip I wrote email to Principle and class teacher with date (travel and return). I didn't receive reply back of email then I sent message to class teacher on ClassDojo regarding that email. then class teacher said that is perfect, received email. After we came back from trip. he supposed to start school Wednesday, but he was not feeling well (it was very long flight) so I sent message to Class teacher insisted of Wednesday he'll return to class Thursday. I don't get message back from Class teacher, but I received call from vice principal. Vice principal call me and she told me that he not able return to class now because of his dangerous behavior (he try to jump fence and try run away from class) and consideration of class teacher. he is taking out from class. Student not even 5 years old. And how that will be possible taking out from class for year. I never received letter from school. regarding he been taking out because of that reason. it's very serious. I been multiple times phone conversation with vice principal I asked her regarding my son how can he go back to school, but she been telling me that not this year only next year. she calls me back another week after our conversation and she told me that now he is on waiting list, around holiday if others student doesn't come to class, he can come back to school class. After vice principal told me that he is in waiting list, next day i talk to with another school staff and. they told me that my son not even register. without register how vice principle told me that he's in waiting list? So, it's very serious how vice principal can give wrong information to parent of regarding 4 years kids student. I wrote email to principle on November 29/2022 regarding i received wrong information from vice principal. and want to talk to with principal in school in person so I can better understand what is exactly happened, as of today 12/06/2022 no reply from principal. He really wants to go to school, but he is in home now, when he see outside other people going and coming from school. he always asked why I'm not going school.

We loved this school, some teachers are awesome. The principal seems very judgy and seems to not care for children with disabilities. Wish they offered more services for children with IEP'S and had counselors in school.

I am a former student. The school was great under the management of Mr. Moses, unfortunately it is now under new management, which leaves a lot to be desired. This new management is extremely unprofessional and they have no intentions of working with the parents. As a parent there are no rights, you cannot ask any questions for fear of making the principal angry. As a parent it is my job to make sure my child is receiving the very best, with that being said I need to ask questions.
