Northview Middle School

I will be attending my last day of north view ever today. I am not proud to be a falcon. Sure, the school is big and a lot of the teachers are good. The real problem is way worse than anything. There are cockroaches all over the building. Also, the café is almost never clean. And to add to that, my friend had a green pepperoni on her pizza once! Also if an employee drops an apple, all they do is put it back. Furthermore, the substitute teachers are horrible! They can’t shut the class up or do anything!!! There is one in particular that cant sub. I won’t say her name but if you go to north view, you will know who it is. She can’t read. On a 6^th grade spelling test, she couldn’t read the words so she spelled them out to the kids! Don’t send your kids to north view middle school.

Can’t really rate the instruction, because I don’t have any kids old enough yet to attend (and it’s not my school district anyway), but the school building is spotlessly clean, and the auditorium where my church, New Horizons, meets is top notch. The sound in the auditorium is excellent, the lighting is ample, and the seating capacity is somewhere in the neighborhood of 900! Not to many middle schools can boast the quality of the production facilities Northview has. So much so that they seem to be almost better than some high school’s. There is a very large stage and modern curtain and backdrop system, a small orchestra pit, built in sound (well hidden speakers) and soundproofing in the walls and large backstage area and good lighting! Even when all the lights are down in the auditorium, you can still see your literature (Bible in my case.)
The church utilizes a few classrooms for Children’s Church and pre-​service Bible study. The classrooms are what you expect, although smaller than the ones I remember in junior high. Each teacher has decorated his/​her classroom with individual décor and flair. The building is laid out as an «X» shape with a one level design to the wings (where the classrooms are) and a two story middle area where the cafeteria and auditorium sit. Part of the flooring is the durable two part epoxy and flakes that seems to be all the rage now for it’s vibrant lasting color and limitless design potential. It does take the building up a couple notches from standard school form.
I’d love to hear more from a fellow Unilocaler about instruction here, but the facility here is fantastic.
