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.

I enrolled in northglenn high school in 2019 and graduated 2023, during this time, may physical fights would occur, my counselor would give me little to no guidance, and it was not very educated forward. saying this, there were a lot of dedicated teachers who would devote extra time for those who needed it.

I went to Northglenn High School for all four years of high school. While I was there, I made amazing friends and felt like I belonged there. However, there were real lockdowns several times while I attended and several more lockouts. Some of the students are "bad eggs" and make the atmosphere of the school feel hostile.

The students at Northglenn High School are like other high schools with well behaved and less behaved. Overall they respect the staff and teachers well. The stem programs give many opportunities other schools may not get. The area and building of the school is safe, along with a majority of great teachers. Overall the school is great, with its imperfections like every school.

All my siblings went to Northglenn and had a fantastic experience. The academics are very well taught by great teacher who take their time to help a student if the need them.
