As I hear different languages being yelled across the halls, flags fluttering to the beat of the breeze, and hearts synchronizing with the rhythm of each march, my school comes together and embraces the idea of “the human family.” Growing up in a very diverse school that host annual international parades, where collective students from every grade dress up in their own country’s traditional garbs, is truly something that sets North Hills Preparatory apart from any other schools. As I participate walking down through 606 East Royal Lane wearing my Indonesian dress, I began to capture the different countries and languages my school symbolizes. Through sitting in a classroom full of Brazilians to Korean to Indians, it has orientated the way I achieve academic excellence, believing who I become will be invaluable to the world.
I am a scholar currently attending Uplift North Hills Preparatory. Through the rigorous AP and IB courses provided, I was able to set higher goals for myself than students at regular public high schools near me. Most teachers here are understanding and easy to talk to. Because of the necessity to balance my own time between many assignments, projects, and essays with extracurricular activities outside of school, this school has definitely improved my time management skills and productivity. However, the sports they provide are very limited such as the lack of a football team. But by allowing the establishment of student led organizations, my leadership skills have greatly improved through my high school years. Although I would like to see a larger variety in the courses provided by this school, I am satisfied with the learning experience at Uplift North Hills Preparatory.
North Hills Preparatory is an overall decent school. The teachers are extraordinary and are immensely helpful in making sure you succeed both in and out of the classroom. However, a huge problem with academics is the limited variety of classes one can take. Although North Hills is an IB school, there are only a limited amount of IB subjects offered. Valuable courses that I were interested such as Computer Science and Business were unfortunately not available. Nonetheless, because of the small population it is easy to form tight-knit bonds with both students and faculty - meaningful relationships that could last a lifetime.
