Facilities
Due to the recent increase in population in the area, several additions have occurred at Northwest, including the adaption of a two-story educational building completed in 2002, a second gym completed in 2003, and cultural arts wing at the school. Northwest now has two gyms: the "Old Gym" and the "New Gym;" as well as two main buildings, the "Old Building" and the "New Building."
The original main building at the school, the "Old Building," serves primarily as the English, CTE, and Environmental Science building, and the Educational Building, or "New Building," serves primarily as the Mathematics, Foreign Language, Biology, and Physical Science building.
The Vocational Building houses classes such as Drafting, Technology, and Graphic Design, and trailers serve mostly as the Social Studies classrooms. The Vocational Building used to be the home of the school's Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC) until the program was decommissioned in the Spring of 2004.

“Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
