    Northville prides themselves in the immense success their students achieve - such as being in the top 25 in the nation for their PSAT/SAT testing scores. Northville has a wonderful faculty that cares greatly for their students and greatly focuses on creating life-long relationships with students. That being said, Northville also places great pressure onto their students. Students could just have finished the 8 hours of homework they were assigned before a teacher randomly sends a Remind, asking for a 5 paragraph essay about anything. Some Northville teachers look down upon students who decide not to take AP/IB courses. Those teachers often have expectations that are too far out of reach for their students to achieve.

    I believe Northville has done all it can to prepare me for the next chapter in my life. I personally adore Northville with much of my heart.
    Northville High School is a very fun school with many opportunities for students to find their passion. With over 200 clubs finding something you enjoy is not a hard task. Everyone is extremely friendly and the school environment is great. They have very high level classes allowing students to reach their potentials and be on track to get into the college you want and be prepared as you move on through life. Going to Northville High School will leave you with memories you will never forget!
