In responce to Just Saying… Come on give credit where credit is due. These kids have proven that they want to be champions at everything. Moving from a D school to a B school is a big deal. So now maybe people want refer to Northview as the forgotten school of Escambia County…. GO CHEIFS!!!!!

If they padded NHS grades, maybe they also padded WFHS grades. Just wondering how you would do that. Maybe you could explain your remark.

West Florida should never be anything but an “A” school every year, so congratulating them on what is expected is like giving a trophy to the first place finisher in a one person race. The school skims the best students from around the district and therefore WF doesn’t take lower performing students (bottom 30% of the FCAT) or those who have discipline problems.

Just wish more of the people who make negative comments about our school truly understood the way the grading system works. Northview is a good school. Students get out what they put into any school /education, and a child determined not to get properly educated can do poorly at the best school.

No matter what grade Northview earns, the bottom line is that Northview is a great high school. We had 3 children graduate from Northview. All 3 of them did excellentIt in college. They received a great education at Northview. I suspect that Northview is like a lot of schools, not perfect but a lot depends on what kind of effort the child puts forth. I feel like the faculty and staff at Northview overall do an excellent job. It does not get said enough but Thanks For All You Do!!!!!!

Sandra that was true, either you were related to the teachers or you were good at sports. You can’t tell me that NONE of the students grades were padded, Good job WFHS .

To the person that commented last week that Northview puts more emphasis on sports than they do academics, all I can say is BOOYAAAAAA!!!!!!!
