Norwood High School Reviews
Rating 3.75 out of 5 204 reviews
I had a great experience here! Teachers are extremely supportive of students and their goals. There is such a positive community, and so many opportunities available for students, regardless of their background. During the pandemic, teachers were still very understanding of each student's unique circumstances. I graduated in 2021, but I am a substitute teacher there when I am home on college breaks.
There was a lot of diversity, a lot of people were friendly, the design of the school was nice, and a lot of the teachers were really helpful. Also, we had a pretty solid sports team. For example, in my senior year, our boy's and girls' basketball teams both made it to the finals, but we lost, unfortunately. Regardless, it was impressive that we made it that far. Our baseball team barely had any losses as well as our football team. And we had some really skilled people on our track team.
Had some trouble Junior year and had to do online School, but other than that have had a decent experience. I've been very involved in Music and Drama and almost everyone i've worked with in those fields have been wonderful. The school could use some disversity in the staff, but the staff is overall nice and i've had some teachers who have made a great impact on my life! The food is good and they do a decent job at helping you with college planning.
