The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Northwest early college is a great way to get ahead in your college education. All of the teachers are willing to help and do their best to help you succeed in both college and highschool courses. Only downfalls are we don't have an official sports team, just a club same for music. Since it's a small school it's easy to know everyone and have a tight knit community that you get along with.

My personal experience with this school is very mixed. I enjoy the support I receive from staff members although there is some people in administration that could be more supportive to students in need. I enjoy the liberties and opportunities that the school provides. My college readiness professor is one of the best people to go to when I need help applying to colleges and scholarships. This is a small school and the amount of focus and support for every individual student from the staff is reflective of that.

I liked how it was a small campus so every teacher was involved and they cared for their students. The only thing I would change is the amount of electives. With more money there could of been more electives to help expand the minds of their students.
