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.

I like Deer Park High school because it provides a multitude of opportunities, you are supported, and can always revive help when you need it. Though this school has helped me be successful, I believe that the school needs to change its disciplinary actions. If someone got in trouble the rest of the school suffers from it.

I love the small town atmosphere at DPHS. You know the teachers personally and they really have helped me accomplish my goals for high school and my future education. DPHS cares about their students and their success.
