Northshore High School in Slidell, Louisiana, United States, serves a population of approximately 14,000 in its district. Currently, there are 1,628 students enrolled, which is about a 10 percent increase over the last four years.
The students of Northshore High are residents of a suburban community east and across the lake from the city of New Orleans. Slidell's population is just over 29,000. The school was incorporated in 1982 and was the fourth high school to serve the Slidell area. It began as a school for approximately 800 students and has increased in population to its present level. The school year follows the St. Tammy Parish School Board calendar and provides 178 instructional days for ninth through twelfth grades.
Uniforms were adopted for Northshore High School students beginning with the 1999-2000 school year. A majority vote by all parents was required in order to establish a uniform policy. A team composed of parents, teachers, and students chose the style and colors of the uniform clothes. The school requires that navy blue or white polo shirts be worn with khakis at all times.
Facilities have changed over the 28 years since the initial construction of Northshore High. As population increased, additional wings have been added to the main building.
Northshore is a part of the St. Tammany Parish Public Schools.
