“This is my daughter's first year at Northwestern. She absolutely loves this school. I am happy that the school is making physical changes. The students need to make changes also. Once students realize the quality of education the school will be much better. Students need to practice self control. The school needs more parent involvement. I am happy with the staff. They have a busy and difficult job which I have come to appreciate.” This review was posted by a parent.

“I am a 2006 graduate of Northwestern and i am going on to attend goucher college with a full scholarship. Northwestern is a great school with great teachers. The problem is that the students aren't dedicated and determined to learn. If the school had more funds to work with we may see better results. I was a student that loved to learn, but was classified by the school i attended.” This review was posted by a student.

“I also agree this school is the worst in the district. The discipline is terrible. Numorous students walking the halls. The bathrooms are the most unhanded Ive ever seen in my life. This school needs a change.” This review was posted by a former student.

“This school is one of worst in the district. The special education dept. is not up on new learning disabilities with children. Most of the teachers need additional training with inner city children. And the student teacher ratio is not 17 to 1; it's 25 maybe 30 to 1. I was a graduate from this school in 1978 and the overall moral of the school is zero. Children need to be in a school where they can express themselves and feel as though they are a part of the school no matter what level of learning they might be at.” This review was posted by a parent.
