—thanks — Administration, Faculty and Staff at Northview High School and a special thanks to all the great students who care about their school and its reputation. You all make our community proud! Go Chiefs!
Thanks for having an administration that demands their best from her faculty and students. Poud of all.
I have heard so many times that many high school students graduate, go off to College and cannot make it because there was just too big of a gap in the curriculum resulting in the students not being prepared enough to handle it.
I am proud to say that our daughter went through the school system on the north end of Escambia County Florida (Bratt Elem. Earnest Ward Middle and Northview High Schools) and was very prepared through all her years of pre-K – 12th grade education to handle being accepted into Auburn University and graduated cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in chemistry. I’m here to testify, it wouldn’t have been possible without all the wonderful, dedicated and educated teachers giving these students their very best and making that possible for her and so many others.
Congratulations Northview High School, you make us all very proud and to your sister schools who set the foundation for your success! Thank you
Congratulations to everyone who had a part in the success of Northview students’ achievements! I’m very proud of these students for all their hard work!
I am proud to have kids that have went to West Florida and one about to attend Northview High! Two great schools!

Congrats to all!
