It ranks near the top in the state for test scores, attendance rates, and graduation rates and offers a wide variety of extracurricular activities.

Getting Around

Northwood Village is just off Northwest Expressway OK-3, a main metro thoroughfare that takes you directly into the northwest metro. NW Expressway also links you to the newly-completed John Kilpatrick Turnpike, which gets you around the city and to all the major communities surrounding it without the traffic headache. Take NW Expressway and the turnpike just a few minutes straight to the plethora of dining, shopping, and entertainment options off Memorial Road, including Quail Springs Mall, Top Golf, and Gaillardia Golf Club. You can also take the turnpike to HWY 74 and down to Quail Creek Golf Club, Martin Park Nature Center, Quail Creek, The Village, Nichols Hills, and Hefner Lake. Or avoid the metro entirely and take the turnpike south to Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge and Lake Overholser. Really want to get away? Take OK-3 straight out of town for a day of adventuring in fun communities like Okarche and Kingfisher.
