School Overview

Norwood Junior High sits in the north Sacramento neighborhood of Robla, a working-class community that's seen a lot of change as the region continues to grow. The school shows a real split in its academic profile — stronger English scores than math and science — so families who prioritize literacy and communication skills may find more to like here than those focused on STEM. Twin Rivers Unified serves a diverse, evolving part of Sacramento, and for families already rooted in this part of the city, Norwood offers a familiar, community-connected middle school experience during those transitional seventh and eighth grade years.
