GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The school is pretty average, the food is edible, the floors are clean, I learn a lot from my classes. the problem is curtain sports get funded more than others and students are fighting like 1 a month. if you actually try to get a education here you will succeed, if you arent teachers will help you especially if you're trying.

Dundalk high school is a very diverse school that is very welcoming to anyone, a school that you are sure to like because of its amazing staff, clean environment, and educational opportunities that provide the students with everything they'll need.

Brand new school that our son attends. The teachers are dedicated. The curriculum is also strong. History and Literature are particularly strong. Math is excellent for my child who never liked math previously but now does. Would highly recommend this school.

I personally think the school system itself is messed up so I dont think this school is any better than the system its forced to follow. It's time for change and school never does that. We need to do more than babysit students.
