They give students every chance to succeed. YES there are some teachers better than others but the system works as most of the school is very supportive of the students.

As a former student, I must say that Bloomington Highschool Norths faculty helped me greatly in preparing for college level classes. It has classes for all skill levels, regular, honors, and AP. They also offer a great junior/ senior internship program that is known throughout the community, and gives students the opportunity to intern at IU, doctors offices, with the city, or where ever the student wishes as long as it is practical. It also offers some classes both from IU and Bloomington's Community college Ivy Tech North offers a great Fine Arts classes that have put out some national award winning pieces of art, a phenomenal English department and social studies department, and a pretty good science department. The school also has a strong group of administrators, some better than others. This school is not perfect just like any high school in the area or the country for that matter, there are some bad teachers, and kids that get away with things, but again it's hard not to find that anywhere.

There are such nice teachers, the principal is nice and easy to talk to, and best of all are the counselors! There is a diverse community of students there, and it's a good environment to be in.

I've had two children attend Bloomington High School North and I haven't been happy with alot of the Teachers or Administrators either time. They act as if they are there to baby sit and not teach. My current child that goes there has to stay on top of the teacher just to make sure the teacher does their job and grades the paper without loosing it. I check the website often to see how my child is doing and the teachers do not keep it up to date which makes my child's grades look bad. I have tried to contact the teachers and they are not willing to work with the parent. Teacher wants to always blame the student. My child then wants to know how to make the teacher to do their job so that my child doesn't get in trouble at home over their grades. It is very frustrating. I have tried to discuss this with the conselor but they are also not willing to meet with the parent. They even screwed up my childs schedule and gave her a class that had a prerequisite that she didn't meet then blamed it on the parent/student because we were suppose to have known that (dropping the class was not allowed). I see why more students are going to home school.
