There are numerous clubs and extracurricular activities both before and after school. There is a wide variety of classes to take, the food is good, and the student atmosphere is fantastic.

    This school was very good academic wise. The sports definitely made you closer to people, even if you were just a student in the crowd watching, it always made the school feel more connected. Most of the teachers were very approachable and were willing to help students when they needed extra understanding on a particular matter. During senior year, the English department definitely helped in preparing me for college, I felt I had all the necessary tools in order to be well prepared for the rigor of college courses and professors.
    I enjoy that my school provides numerous AP programs as well as many clubs and extracurricular activities. I've taken four AP classes at North and have very positive experiences with all of them, along with being an officer for numerous clubs! Overall I enjoyed my years there.
