Another best part are the art classes which allow one to express their creative side. The worst parts are some of the racial slurs in the student and staff community. Not only that, but the abundance of security at the school made it feel like a prison all because of a few students decisions.

Nordonia has good sports programs. We also have many AP courses available and a really good art department that offers a wide variety of art classes.
