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.

My best part of Dysart High school are the teachers that always make sure that I understand the materials that are being taught in their classes. In my own experience, the worst part of my time at Dysart Hugh school would be the food. The food at Dysart High School is not the best and can be the better.

Had some teachers who really put their all into what they taught for us students to retain and continue on with higher knowledge. The best part of my high school experience was my AVID teacher Ms.Wisbey, she prepared me for college as well as was a huge support system I needed to succeed. Some of the worst part of attending my time there was the lack of community and family engagement, on top of that the lack of tradition throughout the school.

I don't have any complaints about Dysart High School. One of the things I like the most is the teachers because anytime you need something from them they will help you with homework, projects and so on. Because English is not my first language, sometimes I struggle to understand the teachers. Still, I always received the help I needed, especially from my English teacher, who in the beginning gave me the Spanish edition of the book the class was reading so that I wouldn't be left behind. The counselors are also nice; they will guide you during your high school year, suggesting what to do to prepare you for college. One thing I would like to change is the food, it is almost the same every day and I would like to see some variety, but it is not a big deal to worry about. Overall, it's a very good high school and it has a lot to offer.

My current high school is one of the most terrible places ever. It has almost driven me to suicide because of it's problems - I've seen the rudest and most hypocritical people in my life here other than in Los Angeles and New York City. The Cambridge curriculum is horrible, stressful, and worst of,...
