Northern Nash High School Reviews
Rating 3.7 out of 5 237 reviews
I absolutely love Northern! It’s very diverse! We have a number of clubs for all different areas of interest. For example, Greek club, music club, movie club, and so much more. We also have a number of interesting classes to take during our free periods to help with the stress that comes with being a high school scholar, such as, yoga, and coloring to relieve stress. The administration at Northern is absolutely wonderful and will help anyone with anything they need. I also find the administration leaders very easy to talk to. The teachers are great and will go out of their way to make sure every student is working to their fullest potential in the class. They also execute their lesson plans very well and make sure all topics are covered and that no question is left unanswered. There is a number of after school activities to be involved in. Everyone tends to show amazing school spirit and support at after school activities like football and basketball games. I loved it here!
I believe that Northern Nash and the staff, administration, parents, and other students have encouraged and supported me these last 4 years tremendously. The teachers and counselors have taught me many life skills that have prepared me for college and for my future adult life. They have all helped me prepare for my academic career at NC State so I can be as successful as I can be. This school's spirit and family is like no other, everyone is fond of everyone and will do anything to help any individual in need of support and encouragement. The programs have been very beneficial socially and personally such as volunteering and leadership programs that I have been a part of. My overall experience at Northern Nash came with some hardships however, I was able to overcome these hardships through the amazing students and staff of Northern. This school has helped me prepare to pursue my dream as a lawyer after attending NC State.
The staff can be helpful with questions that I have and it’s a pretty big school. I like that you can walk outside to get to class and, the gyms are nice. The classes can be fun especially the extra curriculum like pottery or culinary arts. My experience has been alright just trying to make the best out of everything. The Football games are fun to watch. They have a lot of sports you can play and or watch with a concession stand that has good food. My favorite is the pizza. They have a bunch of bathrooms around the school which is convenient for me and also have something called “knight time”. It’s used for lunch and to catch up on work , if you missed a day and needed to take a test you make it up in knight time. It is really convenient for all students that need it and I think that is a considerate thing to do. Northern isn’t a bad school if you make the most of it you should enjoy attending there it has lots of opportunities. Good classes , fun activities and more!
