When I went to Dixon all I had seen was people vaping after school, getting jumped on their way home, and fighting each other. There was one incident where some kids bullied a girl into depression. But I will say that during my time there we had some of the best teachers who wanted to work with the students but the students did not want to work with them.

I completed a student observation for graduate school at Arthur Dixon. I absolutely loved the atmosphere, staff, admin, and the support that students were provided to enrich their overall educational experience. The African artwork, history, and culture is beautiful.

My son has attended the last 2 years. He is doing well and thriving. There are some teachers that do above and beyond.
