Millard North High School is a high school in Omaha, Nebraska, United States. It is part of the Millard Public Schools district. Millard North partially opened in 1978 for 9th and 10th grade students. In 1981, the second phase of the project was completed and the school began to serve students in grades 9-12; at that time, the school's name was changed to Millard North High School. The school completed an expansion in 2007. Millard North underwent a comprehensive renovation which was finished in 2016.[3]
Millard North is one of three public high schools in Nebraska to carry the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, and was the first in the state to offer it. Along with Millard North Middle School, Millard North High School offers the IB Middle Years Programme.[4] The only other schools in Nebraska that offer the Diploma Programme are Lincoln High School in Lincoln and Omaha Central High School in Omaha.
Millard North is part of the Millard Public Schools System, which offers the Academy program for those students aspiring to a particular career after graduation. Currently, Millard North is home to the Business & Logistics Management Academy. Millard North sends students to the other three Millard high schools to participate in the other academies. Currently, there are five academies offered in the Millard district: Education at Millard West; Entrepreneurship at Millard South; Health Sciences at Horizon; and STEM at Millard West. Academy students graduate with almost a full year of college credit (though this varies by academy) and partake in the program during the junior and senior years of high school.[5]
