Northern Garrett High School has a large art program that is inclusive to all students who are interested. This ranges from the actual art class to theatre, marching band, chorus, concert band. The majority of the staff in Northern Garrett High School are helpful, kind, and encouraging. Many of the students are accepting. I would like there to be more involved in the arts program and the athletic program.
Northern Garrett High School overall provides a good education for the resources available. The teachers are what separate the school from others in the area. They care about their students and do their best to provide the students with a good education. The science teachers, in particular, go above and beyond what is asked. The years I have spent at Northern have been enjoyable. Every school can make improvements, and Northern is no exception. However, I feel that this school is working towards bettering itself.
The atmosphere is good. Teacher and student relationships are easily made. Some administrative decisions are not always in the best interest of the school however. Money is spent in departments that don't need it. Classes suddenly change in GPA weight YEARS after the class has already been taken and offered, causing students GPA's to rise unexpectedly and unfairly to those who did not take that particular class. Students who take more classes suffer their GPA dropping as opposed to someone who takes less classes.
