Former student here: This school used to be amazing but after the principal change it was horrible! The current principal of this year bullied me and my friends, accused us of things simply because she didn’t like us, the best thing about that school is the middle school math teacher and history teacher and another teacher which her class was just added it was never really a subject class. They helped us more than anyone in the school. The learning experience is horrible and the principal suspended someone for absolutely no reason or proof she did anything and didn’t let her walk the stage to graduate.

This school is a complete joke! They bully staff and students, staff will be fired without a replacement and no real reason. Test scores are falsified! Principal bullies staff and students. Leadership does not support their staff and often bullies them into doing what they want. This place is run like a business. DO NOT EVER SEND YOUR KIDS HERE!!!

Disappointing. One of the worst schools I have been at in my 12 year career.

The experience at this school is horrible along with the structure. Do not send your child to this school. They have a revolving door of staff and they are very disrespectful to the children that attend there. They also make the kids have to pay to wear regular cloths to school but call it free dress. The teachers don't care about academics of the students and they are ineffective on bullying. Teachers always talking about quitting and seem like they have the inability to handle inappropriate behavior. And all students seem to failing classes but yet want to push the students to pass state tests. Do not send your child here.

Northridge teaches more than academics to a student. All of the teachers take pride in educating the entire child and teaching students the steps to becoming responsible adults.

At one time I was so happy I found this school. But at the start of the 2013 school year,they seem to have a revolving staff and they lengthened the school day two hours. My child returned from winter vacation to a whole new teacher who cares nothing about my child's ADD and the way he needs to be seated away from distraction. And the 7:15am to 4:30pm school day is far too long. So very unhappy and so is my child

Run. Take your child to ANY other school in this district. With talk of closing year after year because of low test scores, your child needs a place with better leadership. Most teachers are caring, but the leader needs to be replaced. Most teachers resigned or were fired within the last school year.
