Northwest Middle School

As a former student, my opinion will likely be biased, but this place sucks the life out of teachers that really care about kids and undervalues students as a rule. Sadly the strict rules seem more like a punishment for being a kid than actual discipline. They get students out of there, but it really depends on how dedicated a kid is to doing well. There is too much noise going on here for most kids to really focus. I made it through because I studied and went home. Ask about sexual assault statistics and fight frequency to see if things are better. If I'm honest, those are things I think that parents should always ask about schools when they're thinking about sending their child there.n--nThere are always 1or 2 good teachers, but if a program (like band) were to accelerate and start doing well, they move teachers away from the school.nI am speaking from the perspective of someone who went there during High School and knows this pattern to be fact. The principal has changed a few times during my time there and after my time there. I graduated in 2014. I have visited a few times since and kept in contact with other students. I honestly hope it's gotten better, but the truth is it's really not the worst school out there.

If I could I would have put ZERO stars. I have been at this school since 9th grade as the years went on the school slowly got worse. The school is ghetto as hell. This school is dirty. There is always fights, the school is low key segregated. No body is ever in uniform. This school is not for success, teachers will pass you just to get you out of the school. There are barely any teachers and if we need a substitute, there is barely any. I don't even know Algebra II, because I didn't even have a teacher. This school sucks. DON'T SEND YOUR KIDS HERE!

Everyone thinks Northwest is a bad school because of the few kids that choose to do wrong ud83dude11 u all disgust me Northwest has kids with talent beyond believe but because everyone says it's bad no one what's to see what we got My name is OB and am proud to say I went to Northwest high school because I learned about the real world. We have teacher who are ready to fight for there students of that ain't a school you can be proud of than God damn i don't know what to say to you all. And please know that i can pledge for this school anywhere.
