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.

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.

Northwest is a small school that really focuses on each individual student. Everyone knows each other which makes going to school everyday enjoyable. I have gone to Northwest since kindergarten and have loved every minute of it.

It is a very small school. It needs more programs but overall has pretty good teachers and administrators. There is not much an over achiever can do here.

It blows. The teachers are jerks who don't care about their students and the students are bullies.
