We used to love this school. A new administration came in during 2008, and it appears that teacher morale has plummeted. The new administration is also very detached from parents. My kids have been very fortunate to have excellent teachers; however, we're been apprehensive every time a new year school comes around. As a parent volunteer, I've seen many teachers who are skating by. Maybe my standards are too high, but every educator should be excellent.

School has great teachers and staff but it has become overcrowded. The school is no longer a School of Excellence and it shows.

The best Wayne County, NC public elementary school. School of Excellence 2004, 2005, 2006. School of Distinction 2007. New Principal began in 2007/2008 school year, Mrs. Theresa Cox who had previously served at Northwest and knows the school well. The school acquired 88 new computers this year for its computer lab which allows students to explore and learn different areas in technology. Teachers receiving awards in 2007/2008 include: Maggie Keaner Beginning Teacher of the Year & Wayne County Teacher of the Year Marcie Huf Teacher of the Year Connie Cox Instructional Assistant of the Year

I am really impress with Northwest School.The teachers treats the kids as if they were their own kid. You can't say enough of Mr. Wingate. I have never been to another school where the pricipal know every kid by thier first name and knows the parents of each kid. I would recommend this school to every kid that moves to wayne co.
