Northwood High School

Northwood has been an amazing school for my son. His experience in the GTLD program has made him love school and helped him be an extremely successful student. The staff has been wonderful and great at communication. I haven't encountered anything that matches the negative picture these statistic paint. I think if someone is considering the school they should go and visit, learn about what it is available, and meet the amazing staff. Judging by these numbers alone is a skewed picture and does a disservice to the school and staff and the wonderful job they are doing.

I think the low test scores at this school are a reflection of the high percentage of students who are English langauge learners. The ESOL program and department, which is very large, is amazing and consists of a team of very hardworking, dedicated professional teachers who give their all every day to help almost 500 English language learners to succeed in school. The other students in the school are also given a variety of activities and programs to help them get a great start in life. Nothwood High School is a great school!

Northwood is a very nice school. It offers many programs including medical, technology, and law. They say there is many gangs ,but to be honest thats not true. just because this school is located near Langley Park doesnt mean it had a lot of gangs its not a bad school! I am currently a junior I graduate 2014. I recomend this school! I remeber when I was chosing this school they said there was alot of bullying , but theres not, I mean in every school there is but here it depends who you mess with. I remeber my parents were scared to let me come here but in the end they were satisfied and relieved knowing that its not a bad school. I recomend it for any incoming 9th graders. I give this school a 5 star rating.

Northwood is a fantastic school! My friend was going here and so I decided to go. The teachers are really foccussed on me as a person and what I can do to bring my grades up. I love the way my gym class is because the coach is hard on us to stay in shape. I love Northwood!
