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.

my experience with NRHS so far has been amazing. There are many different backgrounds and ethnicities so its a very diverse school. The food is great and the teachers are amazing.

I love the amount of opportunities given within clubs and sports. The school offers many programs including the arts, athletics, and technology so there is something here for everyone. However some clubs and programs receive more funding from the schools than others, which I think should be improved.
