North High sees enrollment jump as new year begins

On the first day of school Monday, North High School was packed with about 400 students — compared to just 52 five years ago. The new superintendent would make his first visit soon. Excitement was high.

Still, the school was quiet. No ruckus anywhere.

“Some people, when they come to North, that have low expectations, are surprised when they come in and see that it’s orderly,” said Principal Shawn Harris-Berry.
