North High School
Alum: The academics are challenging if you want them to be, but for the most part are pretty easy. That being said, the teachers and curriculum are still good, and you'll learn a lot, just at a slower pace. There were two things I did not like about North High - the lack of diversity and the administration. There's not much that could be done regarding diversity, since the boundaries are already shifting south and soon students that live closer to South High will be feeding to North. The problem is that a lot of students live in an upper-middle class white bubble and seem to forget the privilege that lifestyle brings. The administration at North always bothered me, although I never had a means to speak up about it. One issue getting brought up by one student or teacher seems to spark the interest of the administration, leading them to overreach and try to solve "problems" that were never really problems, often through authoritarian means.
