Dakota Ridge Senior High School Reviews

 
Dakota Ridge is a very good school. They are striving to be the highest they can at academics. They are using data to drive instruction and they make sure teachers are collaborating. The comments about athletics above are unfair. All the coaches are there for their kids but obviously they also want to be the best they can. The coaches try to have the best team possible due to part of their evaluation is success, not who is their favorite. This no different than any other American high school, but Dakota works on including every activity and celebrating their accomplishments.

Great High School. School is new and clean and the teachers treat the kids as an individual, giving them extra help whenever asked. Good teacher/kid ratio and the teachers commumicate often with the parents. Lots of after school activities.

I have two kids that go to D.R.H.S. and I really like the school except for two things. One is that they have a anual thing, the name excapes me, it's like a 'gay support day'. The kids can purchase a Rainbow ribbon or button or something and if they purchase this they don't have to talk to the teachers for a day. As far as I know they don't have a 'straight no talk day.' Also if your kid is in athletics watch out. If they don't play for certain clubs, they'll never make varcity. I've noticed this and have talked to alot of parents that have too. Last year they had 15 varcity soccer players graduate, that all went from freshman year to senior together. So your kids may not get a fair chance in athletics. It's a good school otherwise.

I go to DRHS right now. Its a good school and all. Its really nice and has seemingly good teachers. But tehyve started changing all the rules all of a sudden on students so alot of them are rebelling and breaking rules. Its a super good school though. But its full of more 'upper class' if you ask me. I mean im not poor or rich but its a real high rate of more uppity class people so theres 'clicks' and 'groups' major stereo type. So if you start your kid in the middle of a school year, chances are itll be hard for like the first week but way easier. Good luck in dakota~! because i HAVE to change schools on the count of my moms new job. GO EAGLES~!major sport school!
