7/8/2025
Northwest was honestly the perfect high school for me since everybody got along for the most part because it was a school that was out in a rural area where everyone grew up with each other. It is also worth mentioning that the teachers over there want you to succeed and the principal that was there at the time made sure everything in that school ran smoothly. The school was overall great.

It is fun. Very challenging to students. I am very involved as a student there. School is what you make it and I try my beat daily to make the best of it for myself.

The people are very kind and the teachers actually care about you but you do have to be able to still be driven to do work despite the people that don't really care about doing well around you.
