i cant speak on the perspective of a teacher but as a parent I can honestly say that I LOVE this school. YES they are STRICT and give a good amount of work but kids need that! If they are accustomed to it from a young age it becomes a norm. His teachers are also very caring and my son tells me he just loves his teachers both last year and this year ( 1st grade) my son is learning so much and is surprising me each day with how much he has learned. North Star is one of my main reasons for staying in Newark. My son and all other children deserve the best! North Star pushes my son to do more and he is doing GREAT! He passed his math assessment with an 100%!! They put a focus on college from the beginning and that’s such a plus for me because sooo many kids in the area graduate high school (If that) and think I’m done ! NOOO that’s just the BEGINNING!! My son can name more universities than I can! So thank you to North Star and I look forward to the new school opening :))
I graduated from this school when it was still called 15th Avenue School in the late 80’s and the teachers were hard back then. I had homework that would keep me up until 1 am when I was in the the 5th grade because my mom couldn’t really help me because of her lack of education. Might I add that i was an honor student most of my years there. I respect the dedication and determination that these teachers have. Especially in Newark those kids need the decipline from strong educators thst care about their future. All in all I graduated from there with honors as well as high school and went to college and graduated with a bachelor’s degree. So it is possible for these kids to make it and be better than their parents and surroundings and giving them structure does not hurt.
I have been a NSA parent for almost 13 years. If you would’ve asked me my thoughts 4 years ago, my rating and review would’ve been entirely different than what it is now. The administration for the middle school has changed drastically to positivity. Not only the administration, but the teachers as well are so dedicated to our children and to our family. Yes, they give a decent amount of work, but at the end of the day it is meant to help our children succeed to push them to the challenges and accomplish hurdles that they will one day face in their adult life.
Thank you for all you do!
