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 love being at BDJH but it is such a big school it is hard to get into the things you want such as a volleyball team or a part in the school musical. There are many ways to get involved though because you can put up flyers or make your own club. The Diversity is through the roof. Overall I love bdjh but it is understandable if some people disagree.
