Senior: What I like about NRMPS Early College High School is the many opportunity this school offers. This school allows us to take high school and college classes, which helps contribute to our time management skills. Another thing I love about this school is how the teachers interact with every student. Since the class sizes are small, teachers are able to bond with each student. Since we are located on a college campus, we receive the "college experience", which prepares us for the university experience. The one thing I would change about this school is the accessibility to sports. We don't have sports on our campus, we have to travel to different schools to play. Overall, this school is amazing!...

Sophomore: Faith Christian is an amazing school with staff that truly love and care for every single student. Teachers at Faith Christian are very well qualified and provide an excellent education, going above and beyond expectations and connecting with students personally inside and outside of the classroom. Courses at Faith Christian vary in difficulty, insuring that each student is academically challenged, but not overwhelmed. Faith Christian's teachers and staff set students up for success academically and personally, encouraging and helping them along the way. Staff at Faith Christian not only care about your academic life, but also care about spiritual life. More than anything, staff long to see students grow in their walk with Christ, praying that when they leave, they'll be prepared to face the world academically and spiritually. Faith Christian has truly shaped me into the person I am today and has taught me how to be a leader in and out of the classroom for Christ Jesus.... Read 24 reviews

Senior: 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!... Read 237 reviews

Alum: I went to NECP the very first year it opened. I was in the third grade! I continued my educational journey at NECP all throughout middle and high school. I had the pleasure of watching NECP blossom into the school it is today. NECP is great with communication and support. Currently, the high school gym is not a regulated sized gym and it also happens to be where the students eat lunch because the high school building does not have a cafeteria. I hope this gets changed in the near future.... Read 28 reviews

Junior: As a junior at Rocky Mount High School, I have enjoyed the past three years there. As my junior year comes to a close and it's time to start applying for scholarships and looking at colleges, my teachers are very helpful and encouraging in this area. My chemistry teacher has offered not just me but my fellow classmates help with our upcoming Internal Assessment paper and labs, seeing as I'm in IB, and has spoken to us about the importance of colleges and scholarships. My experience at Rocky Mount High School has been one of the best school experiences I have ever had.... Read 168 reviews

Senior: My school Nash Central High School is a school that have meaning to those that love to learn. I have a bittersweet outlook at the school from missing my peers since this my last year to wondering the hallways going to my next class. The teachers makes it a joy to be able to learn and help students do everything they need to get accomplished. The way I see my school I wished other students have a a school that makes them feel like they need to keep going, to get better, be you but keep your eyes on the prize and that’s learning more and more each single day, knowing once you leave Nash Central High School your confidence in saying I got this. I came to win and the teachers that’s behide every students are the biggest winners because they do so much to make sure we have what we need for the next level.... Read 151 reviews

Senior: My experience at SouthWest Edgecombe has been very short. I came in as a senior. I have had several teachers that go above and beyond. These teachers have to juggle multiple hats during the day, from substituting for other classrooms, planning committee work, all while still teaching us. They definitely deserve a pay raise. Those are the teachers that make the school!... Read 97 reviews
