In Their Own Words
People my age don't usually want to go to school. What's surprising about Northridge is how much we like being around our teachers and classmates. That's what Northridge is about.
There's so many opportunities to be a leader here and grow as a person. In college, I'm most excited about meeting new people and growing in my faith. There's Mass every day there, like Northridge.
The teachers here are always willing to listen and make a helpful suggestion. It's a great community of parents. You walk in and there's a warmth and a trust in being a part of the community.
