Norwayne High School was a good experience. I had a lot of great times with my friends and teammates in band, soccer, softball, and basketball. I went to Norwayne my whole life and I feel that I got the education that was necessary. It is a small school and everyone knows everyone. So, if you like having a lot of connections, Norwayne is a great place.

I really like this High School because it stayed open during the pandemic this winter. They have taken precautions and kept the school clean but have not allowed the government to rule them or prohibit them from allowing their students to have the freedom of getting an education in the best way possible. They also have many actives and clubs to be involved in and each is very well run.

Other than the fact, Norwayne High School may not be the school to go to to prepare for college, the culture and environment is great. I do wish the academic integrity was taken more seriously to prepare students for college.

This school claims to be anti-bullying, however when I attended this school I know of a few instances where extreme bullying was ignored. Issues had been brought up to the principle himself, and still nothing was done claiming that it 'happened out of school hours' even though the time stamps showed...
