"My daughter and son attended school here and have graduated. I can see how I was totaly misled by our schools now. My children did not get prepared for a life after high schools. I've had to hire a tutor just so my son could take his college admissions exams. There is no academic rigor at NGHS."

"I'm a North-Grand senior class of 2009, the second graduating class of the school. My experience in programs and learning has been challenging. In North-Grand I have accomplished subjects and complex problems that I thought I couldn't complete. I accept that there are few undesirable complications. The school is in a very difficult adapting environment to various students. The school offers extracurricular activities frequently. The sports help restrain violence against NGHS students whether they are freshman, sophomores, juniors, or seniors. Assistance is given through-out the school year, the guilt is that some students refuse to ask for assistance or accept it. Yes, people including myself dislike the school polo shirts and does not offer enough extracurricular activities, that does not mean the school is lame. The school has assisted me when I have needed it. Why? because I ask. It is not hard to ask for help and it shouldn't be."

"My daughter use to go to North Grand, she was having difficulties with reading and needed extra help, my daughter felt as if the teachers treated her like she was stupid, so in turn she became demotivated, disconnected, fell further behind and started to miss days, she could not deal with having a learning disability and the teachers making her feel as if she was an idiot, embarassing her in the class."
