Northside Alternative High School

The purpose of the Northside Alternative High School is to provide a positive but disciplined educational setting for those Northside students whose disruptive and/or unacceptable behavior at their regular school may not warrant expulsion, but whose behavior warrants removal from their home campus. Northside Secondary Alternative School offers a supervised, highly structured educational alternative to expulsion. Please note that the administration reserves the right to augment or change the policies as outlined on this web site at any time.

Visual Arts Program

The Northside Alternative High School (NAHS) Visual Arts Program students exhibit their artistic talents by creating outdoor murals. The murals include the rain forest, the Lone Star Express, a Texas sunrise and a coastal lighthouse. Additionally they are creating interpretations of works by artists such as Munch, Rivera, Homer, Dali, Remington, Gauguin, and Van Gogh. On sunny days our art students are often seen outside creating the murals which not only add to the aesthetic quality of the school but also give the students a sense of pride and ownership. The NAHS art teacher is Rick Habel.
