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.

I liked how the teachers were always there to help, and they went above and beyond to help you reach your goals.

I love how everyone has one on one time. Everyone knows everyone ( not because we're all related ). Everyone gets along and very rarely any drama. The food is okay. Most of the teachers are great but some think they need to move faster than what is needed and leave some behind. But there is favoritism. Expecially if you're related to a staff member. All around just a family community and accepts anyone coming into the district.

North Platte is not a bad school. It has great and inspiring teachers that will work hard for you. There isn't a lot of funding for everything, but there is still an extra-curricular activity for everyone. The majority of students are nice and I wouldn't say we have a bullying issue.

North Platte school district is far from the "normal good" standard I have ever seen in my life. All of the things I am going to state in this review are fact even though you may think they are fiction because you could never image a school acting in such a way, I promise it's fact (seen and heard t...

Did not feel like my daughter was getting the attention she requires for learning. Poor relationship with faculty and lack of communication.
