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 have enjoyed my time at Dos Pueblos Senior High, I wish there was a little more for those who are struggling mentally because if you aren't having suicidal thoughts it's very hard to be seen through the school therapist.

I have had a great experience! One of the best parts is that I'm able to take SBCC classes on campus, which is super helpful because it has allowed me to take way more math classes than are offered.

I am super glad I decided to come to Dos Pueblos my sophomore year. I think there is a great community at Dos Pueblos High School and a lot of opportunities to find a community if you want one. The best parts of my experience have been the sports because they have provided me with the community and friends I needed. The worst part is when you are in a class with unmotivated students because all interest is gone.

This school isn't year around. It goes from the very end of August until either the last week of May or the first couple of days of June. The average class size is closer to 35-45 students, not 25. There are more Hispanic's than it claims here. There's no dress code. When I attended, girls would lit...

This school provides the best academics and most adequately prepares the students for post-high school education. When you earn an "A" in an honors or AP class at DP, you have earned it. That cannot be said for other local high schools that will give a student an "A" in a class simply if they get a...
