Great leadership, great teachers, great continuous improvement mentality.

As a parent, I am very satisfied with the quality of education/attention my students are provided.

The size of the corporation can make a bit of logistical challenge for students in the southern part of the county. I believe the administration works to minimize the impact.

Fundamentally, teachers are prepared, available, approachable and caring of the students. Administration is engaged and active. The overall cultural is as academically challenging as one wants it to be and socially nurturing for all.

I enjoyed a lot of experiences during my time at Huntington North. I enjoyed the company of each teacher that I was fortunate enough to have and be taught by, and I enjoyed the quality time spent in the classrooms. I gained many life long friends and a jump start to college evaluation processes. These few components listed that I obtained from Huntington North have allowed for me to not only begin to prepare myself for life after high school, but also prepare me for life in the real word, independently.
I liked how kind most of the staff was but I would have liked to see teachers who were more understanding along with students who held more respect for others. I also would like to see more people within the school open to diversity and uniqueness. I feel our school is clean and well taken care of by the janitorial staff. I also feel that our school holds a good number of students. I appreciate how some faculty will take all students under their wing when they are struggling. But some teachers come off as distant, rude, and close-minded to students. I feel that some teachers here are simply not fit for the job or not trained for the learning environment. Many lack communication and this can make learning difficult.
