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.

Northwood high school is a great school in the northern wood county area. They are great in sports and have many clubs to choose from. Teachers are very hands on and enjoy spending time with student. They are very good at teaching the students in the room as well as other teachers and parents too. Overall it's a great school.

I've been at Northwood for my whole life. Pre-School through Senior year. I've loved every minute of it. It's a small little school, but it's really nice that it's small because then you just get to know everyone better. Everyone knows everyone, and it's really great. Also, Northwood is apart of Penta Career Center. This means starting your sophomore year you can go to Penta and they have "labs" where you can go and get a head start on your future career, and it is also a good chance to make new friends and meet new people.
