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 have had a overall mostly decent experience attending this school. Most teachers I have had care about students and if they succeed. They have set me up for success later in college with many AP and duel credit classes to take.

At Fargo North the school is in good condition and it is always clean as well as having very nice althletic facilities. They just recieved a brand new turf, which is a huge upgrade considering the winters we experience here that cause us to not be able to get on the field in the spring. They also offer a wide variety of AP and dual credit courses so that students are able to earn college credit at a much cheaper price than in college. One other thing about the school is that the school resource officer is very kind and approaching which helps students feel safe.

My children attended North High School and I believe the education they received was excellent. All 3 are college graduates and had no problems regarding the level of preparation they had K12 in Fargo.
