this school is really nice I’ve been here for so long and Seeing these rates is sad because the school is so nice the playground is really big the education is really good there and just make sure that your friends with people that don’t make drama but the lunch are really good too and it’s 2 floors and a big school the music and art and pe teachers are really nice if you ever need help they would help you with good advice.

0. Its aweful the kids bully and the staff can't get undercontrol. The kids have a complete lack of a respect for authority. If I hadn't gotten a part time job there I would not have known what an unsafe learning environment I was sending my kids into. I quit and will be looking for a better and safer place for my kids to learn.

North Park is a great diverse school. The teachers are engaged, and use unique teaching styles that allow all students learn to their ability. The learning labs are fantastic!

As a parent of preschool children at north park, I'm excited to continue their growth here over the next 6 years. My children have unique needs and are met at the various points they enter the school and I see them all growing and progressing through it all!

District was not helpful. Apparently they only have one person per job so my child needing extra help isn't important. The person is to busy. 2 months and they can't get him evaluated. If you are able pick a different school and district.

I have one daughter in second grade this year and am excited for my second daughter to start preschool tomorrow. I feel so lucky to live in the boundaries for this school, they have done an excellent job keeping my daughter interested in learning by moving her up in grade lessons without taking her away from her age group by moving her to the higher grade classes. The only complaint I've had is they had trouble with the bus company last year, not exactly the schools fault, but thankfully they changed company's for this year and so far no major problems.

This is a good school, especially under the current principal. I feel he has added a lot to the school and encouraged the teachers to do well. I think they could change their sign more often outside the building to better communicate to the parents, but I also appreciate the weekly notes they send that has the important information on it. My son is doing very well in kindergarten.

My son started Kindegarten this year and I must say I am not impressed with N. Park thus far. They lost my son on the first day of school due to a lack of communication about his busing route. He has been hassled and even struck on the playground and I never heard a word of it. He mis behaved at his first ever field trip and I didnt learn of it until days later at the conference with his teacher. I was blindsided to learn of my sons lack of participation in class and unwillingness to try at the conference. ( These are things I feel should have been brought to my attention much sooner) I learn of the date of both of my conferences the day of!!! Perhaps I am being to expectant but i trust my son to them for 8 hours a day 5 days a week.
