500			_aACHIEVEMENT: During the course of its 100 years existence (1921-2021), Northam Senior High School has influenced many notable students - academics such as Rhodes Scholars, Jerry Ellis and Bill Pearson, international sports persons (Shirley Strickland and John Rutherford), renowned conservationists (Harry Butler and Barbara York Main), war heroes (Gus Belford DSO and Ken Christmas DCM) and influential politicians such as Ken McIver and Norman Moore. These notables aside, a large proportion of those who have been through the portals of this institution have been positively influenced by it. The school was first founded to serve the youngsters of the wheatbelt regions who had formerly not had the facility for high school education. For many, the time at Northam Senior High School proved a launching pad to further education, worthwhile careers and lives as caring, contributing citizens throughout the state and beyond
500			_aCHANGE: However recent years of the school's efficacy as a vital and positive educational provider has faced a range of challenges. The world has changed; Northam Senor High School has changed. Many small wheatbelt towns have all but disappeared; businesses have died; the digital revolution has connected us internationally but close social and cultural connections seem to be dissipating. Northam Senor High School has not escaped some of the ravages of this new age. What does the future hold?
