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.

One of the best small schools around Dawson County. My Graduating class had 16 students. During my time as Dawson, we excelled in every sport and every academic. We had some amazing teachers that care about our success and invested in our future. Dawson I.S.D is one of the best schools to attend. As a former student at Dawson, academics, clubs, and activities, and school culture have always supported by the teachers, parents and booster club.
