North Polk is overall an above average school in which students largely make up the culture. Teachers are largely independent from one another which causes differences in classes within the same subject that may catch students off guard. I would like to see teachers communicate to one another to make sure students understand classes and see if one teacher may have lower test scores than another exclusively because of their teaching style.

North Polk was the best school that I went to. I moved around a lot but I ended up at North Polk and I am so glad that I did. North Polk is a great community and a great school. I will say though that the kids who did not like school, hated North Polk and I feel like administration always made it worse. I think that administration could work on being there for kids more than just discipling kids. Overall, it is an amazing school district.

I like that you know everyone and the teachers really care about the students. Even though it's a small school there should be more clubs, outreach and connect student with nearby schools with different clubs.

We have had an amazing experience with North Polk Schools. The culture is 10x better than a previous school we were at. I feel like I am kept in the know at all times for all things. My youngest really enjoys school and his teachers at West Elementary. They have been going above and beyond for my da...
