“Northwood is a very charming place and a really good place to be if the goal is self-improvement. The knowledge that I have gained has given me a better outlook on what I want to do with my life.

“A lot of schools admitted me, and Northwood was a place I felt was going to be great for me for better self-improvement.

“Northwood is a quiet place, and I really like being here. I always feel a sense of focus and peacefulness when I am doing my schoolwork. There are no distractions that interrupt me.

“After Northwood, I will go to college, and I want to be a writer or artist. I like these because I can be creative, and others can see my creativity.

“Northwood has helped me become a much calmer person. In my younger years, I was not very calm. Now I have learned to be more patient with stuff and to control the way I feel.”
