GreatSchools Rating
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.

Northport High School had an immense course catalog, and because of that there were very many options. In addition to all of these options, all of the departments had many resources and facilities that were top notch, making it an ideal place to begin to explore what you want to do in your future. On the other hand, it was not a very diverse school community, despite all of these options.

The best part of my high school experience was seeing my friends and having classes with them. I would also say lunch leave is amazing.
