DO NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE. Everyone I know that goes here fails school until they go to a new school and do great, the teachers do not treat the students well or support them. I was checked over 100 times while I was there and haven't been once at my current school. In lunch detention they make you sit by speakers and blast bagpipe sounds on repeat. They will pat you down again lockers like a criminal for no apparent reason.

North Webster High School, located in a small town named Springhill, LA, is home to many students of many backgrounds. Although we are underfunded, we make do of what we have, and for that, I exude pride, respect, and love for my school and campus. Five days out of the week, students gather to learn, commune, and be the best knight we can be.

Basic Louisiana school. Did have free pizza last couple of years, but that also had a negative impact on regular lunches I believe. Teachers are nice.

Everyone I’ve known who goes to this school leaves and gets great grades after when they’re failing when they go there. The teachers treat everyone horribly and do not encourage students. Their lunch detention is making you sit next to speakers that blast bagpipe sounds on repeat
