Needwood is an excellent school. Students who take advantage of the opportunities provided excel. I have taught here for several years, and have found it a rewarding experience.

I think the principal is really trying to make the school a better learning environment than it was. The school has gotten better. Some of the teachers I have met actually do care, there has been a couple that could be there more for the students.

The principal is the best, He is involved with the students and cares about their grades and how they perform at school. Very dedicated. The teachers are there to help the students, staying after school on certain days to help those who need assistance with school work
