It's been wonderful being a student at North High School. All of the staff and administration work really hard to make sure that we have the best experience we can while also being safe. There's activities for everyone though sometimes it gets a little boring when nothing is going on. Overall I really have enjoyed my time here and I'm going to miss it when I graduate.
