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.

My time at NSHS was amazing. I gained a lot of college credit hours. I gained lifetime friends and family, and am glad I choose to go to North Side. Some downsides were some faculty being the janitors were not professional at times and gossiped with students.

It is a good place to learn, I am with people who support and cheer me on towards my goals. It does have its downs, some bad but the people there are fun and try the to help the best they can. Some teachers are not that great always having an attitude, students are also the same but the energy you give is the energy you get back.
