Northwood High School is a public high school in Kemp Mill, Maryland, United States, with a Silver Spring postal address. It is part of the Montgomery County Public Schools system, and is one of five high schools in the Downcounty Consortium.
Northwood originally opened its doors in 1956. The school was closed after 29 years in 1985 due to changing demographics in the area. As the need for additional space for high school students grew in later years, the Montgomery County Public School System reopened Northwood in 2004.
Currently, Northwood is being rebuilt, with its students being held in the Charles W. Woodward High School before Woodward officially reopens.[2]
