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.

For me Norwood High School as provided a lot of opportunity. Not for just me, but for my family. I loved playing sports for my high school. It is a very good school where the staff members and administration tries their best to help their students. One of these is me and I am very grateful for going to Norwood High School.
