North Gwinnett High School is a public high school outside the city limits of Suwanee, Georgia. The school is part of the school district Gwinnett County Public Schools.〔 The superintendent of the district is J. Alvin Wilbanks and the school's principal is Nathan Ballentine.〔 ==History== North Gwinnett High School was established in 1958. It was built in a former cotton field between the communities of Suwanee and Sugar Hill for the purpose of consolidating the two communities' separate high schools, Suwanee High School and Sugar Hill High School. The land for the school was donated by the estate of Tom Robinson, for whom the NGHS football field is named.〔(History of North Gwinnett High School ), Gwinnett County Public Schools website, accessed August 26, 2011〕 In its early years, NGHS was a small school. In 1960, the school served grades 8 through 12 and there were 328 students enrolled.〔 The eighth grade was eliminated after a new middle school was built during the 1973-1974 school year. By that year, NGHS had 606 students. The school grew dramatically in subsequent decades. Enrollment reached 1,000 for the first time in the 1988-1989 school year and has reached over 2,800.〔 For the 2011-2012 school year, enrollment was 2,670.〔(North Gwinnett High profile ), Gwinnett County Public Schools website, accessed August 26, 2011〕 North Gwinnett High School figured in Franklin v. Gwinnett County Public Schools (503 US 60 - Supreme Court 1992), a U.S. Supreme Court case that was decided in 1992. A female student at the school accused a teacher of sexual harassment and sued the school district for monetary damages for not stopping the harassment after she complained to school authorities. The federal district court ruled that Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, under which she sued, did not allow for monetary damages. The appeals court affirmed that ruling, but the Supreme Court overturned that decision. The Supreme Court found that Title IX does allow for monetary damages, thus returning the student's case to lower courts.〔(Franklin v. Gwinnett County Public Schools, 503 US 60 - Supreme Court 1992 )〕〔(Ga. woman may seek monetary damages from school ), ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette'', February 27, 1992〕
