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 think the teaching is pretty academic but when the administration comes in it changes the teachers way of teaching. I think the most students are very disrespectful to each other and the teachers. The best part is when the teachers have the same attitude for everyone. For instance "teachers pet". But the worst part when students are not disrespectful to adults or each other, like cursing. I hate when children curse around adults like their adults.

Poor follow up & follow through from administrative staff. They give more satisfaction to policy than to the students education. Do not send your child to this so called learning institution. Zabrina Blue

I'm a freshman at Dater High School and I love it there. I'm also in the AA program which is only offered at Dater and Walnut Hills. Everyone likes to compare Walnut Hills to Dater, but I think that Dater is better. The population isn't very big which means everybody knows one another. The principal...
