GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

North high school has a wide variety of everything. There are good teacher , and bad, good sports programs and bad, and good people and bad. As in everything in life the experience you get is based how much effort you put in and the choices you make. I enjoyed my time at North for the most part, and for the parts I did not enjoy I can usually point directly to the wrong division or lack of effort that left me in that position.
