Transportation is provided for students on the Northend ! A bus makes stops at several sites for students wanting to attend one of these other high schools.
If you live in the north end, don’t bother going! The only academy offered at Northview is about construction and there is no transportation provided to any of the other high schools. Northview is the only high school that has only one academy, every other high school in the county has at least three, some even have five. I was told that there was not enough funding for anymore academies at Northview, apparently that means just not enough funding for the north end schools.
