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.

Throughout my two years of experience at north high school the teachers are nice but depending on the teacher sometimes they aren't really good at teaching students but they know the material ,which makes it hard for students to really understand. Also there are a lot of fights on campus which doesn't really make it a safe environment for students that are coming to learn.

One of the best parts was meeting new people there and the teachers. The teachers were mostly all very nice and cared a lot for their students. One of the worst parts was COVID and missing out on a year of school. Besides that, I wish I had more freedom with my schedule, and wish I could've changed some of my classes. It was also very hard to keep up with the work. The events like prom/homecoming etc. I wish had more effort put into them.
