(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school has been going down hill since the edison program took over. This school used to be held to a higher standard. The curriculum is below average, I recommend northern high school or maybe southwestern. Northwestern is not a very good school to send your children, the security guards even smoke drugs with some of the students that attend. I hate to say that I graduated from this high school.

- Northwestern Community High School is the best school in Flint Community Schools and Southwestern Academy. I think Northern And Central Students need to work harder because they just passed the students at Northern just so they can have a good name I know I use to go their and it is not a good school like Northwestern, Southwestern, Central,and All the other Flint Community School except Northern Community High School.
