North Branch High School

I moved my kids out of the system. I was not satisfied with the second chance / ok to mess up and retest philosipy. I would not want my doctor to have gone there.... Very close minded administation in the HS.

I am going to take my student out of north branch schools, they are so set on growing that students are getting lost in the cracks. I plan on moving my child to another school in the area.

I must compliment all of the hard work and efforts of the Teaching staff. The support staff does an excellant job of interacting with the students and directing 'problem' situations to the proper Administrators.

I feel that the athletic part of school is held higher in esteem than the academics part. I agree that athletics are important, however schools need to start worrying more about our children's education than the score of a football game. Athletes need to pay to play, and schools need to put sports on the back burner and studies on the front. I had two children graduate from here and one was a total athlete while the other was not. My un-athletic child had to get special permission to join a conditioning class that was offered in school. Who are these people to say that one child is better for a class than another due just to a sport he plays? We as tax payers deserve to have equal classes for our children. Maybe if all children were considered equal, we would have less overweight kids. Get real North Branch!

I went to North Branch from K-12 and you now what I'm glad I did! All the schools have great things to say about them but here is one. It prepared me for college and help me graduated with honors. Yes there is a couple of things that could be fixed but very school as a fault somewhere! They have many different class to help you on the road to college! I also was on the track team, the school showed support for not only us but all the sports and clubs that the school as to offer! When your looking for a great school make sure you check North Branch High School! ~nicole~

Most of the teachers are very willing to help the students that are willing to help themselves. The athletics dept. lacks people skills. They are unapproachable. For some reason this staff doesn't allow quality, experienced, and mature outsiders in. A very clicky organization.

I went to North Branch and I have to say that it is a great school. I went on to college and if it wouldn't have been for the school I wouldn't have known what to do. Coming from a large family where no on went to college before me, I really had no idea where to start but the school helped me get things going and get into school. For people who say the school is so bad, how many of you have sat down and talked with people who have gone to an inner city school and heard what they go through? This school might now be the absolute best, but what school is? Someone will find something wrong with every school. However I have talked to inner city people and I would NEVER trade North Branch High school for anything!

I am pleased with the teachers not only at the high school but in the district. At the high school there are a wide variety of courses offered. The teachers are helpful and professional. I would not hesitate to reccomend this school to anyone. Although my student knows that he/she is expected to do homework and study at home it is obvious that not all parents are as concerend about what their children are doing. There needs to be more parental support and backing behind the teachers. This school has a lot to offer! Keep up the great job teachers!
