Excellent principal. With a very involved staff to properly give each student the education they will be thankful for in their adult lives. The school foundation is built on community and the overall education this generation needs. Ms. Adams is the goat of the Northwood Elementary mission for the students under her care. She cares and thats what matters the most!! Thank you Northwood for the consistency for ALL students enrolled.

So Far, I am satisfied. I have been told that my child's IEP has been stopped due to his academic scores. I am now leery as to the treatment he will receive with no supports.

I would rate this school a 2 at best I would never recommend this school and will be pulling my family members out and away from this school ASAP

This school is just ok. You can tell some of the teachers are running out of patience and have favorites though. It is a toss up if you will get a good one because some of them talk to the kids in a manner that they shouldn't along with the Morgan interns. I will say the principal is nice and professional.

This is my daughters first year at this school. In the beginning i liked the school and the structure. Unfortunately the students in the class do not respect the teacher which interferes with their learning.My daughter has had physical and verbal altercations with another student in her class and the parent as well. The schools answer is to be friends which has been unrealistic because my daughter is still being called names from the same student. I am beyond frustrated and will not be sending her back next year.

I have a grandson that is special needs that attended this school for his elementary years. He was treated just like all the other kids were treated by both the adults and the students. The school also made every effort to accommodate him in his wheelchair. Now his younger brother attends thisbschool and he loves it.

Northwood is a caring place that does a great job with all of the children. My son has had a great experience and has learned a lot. The teachers really care about helping the children! Ms. Adams and Ms. Alford always great the children and make them feel welcome.

Northwood Elementary is a a loving, family oriented school. The parents, grandparents, teachers and administration are always looking out for the good of the students.

I attended north-wood as a 2nd grader and there aren't words that can describe my complete and utter disgust for this school. For all the parents out their that love and care for their kids, don't send them to this school. The staff is rude, the teachers allow your child to be picked on and I am simply ashamed of those monsters that made that school what it is. Pleas take deep thought in where to send your children because this is, from the bottom of my heart, the worst school in the world. If i could give zero stars, that is what this school would receive.
