Plans that were in place to build an arts center have recently been fulfilled (2021) and is located in close proximity to the “Science Building.” Fine arts including band and chorus take place in this new development.

The National Center for Education Statistics classifies Coe-Brown Northwood as a public school.

Like a private school, it is run by an independent board of directors and paid for through student tuition.

It is directed by a headmaster rather than a principal, and has somewhat of the campus feel common in private schools.

The academic curriculum is also more on par with local public high schools.

Coe-Brown has contracts with Northwood and Strafford to be the high school for all residents of those two towns.

Coe-Brown Northwood Academy, often shortened to CBNA, is home to a large variety of ever-changing sports and clubs.
