moved here last year cant wait to move again I do not like it here when I first moved to this school I did not feel welcomed at all when I first moved here it was so bad . so many junkies at this school always looking over the stall begging for pop its embarrassing . so many groupies go here and weirdos . fake throwed . Some teachers are cool . lunch is very good most of the time. Staff is okay but they doo to much sometimes they aren't that bad tho . its sortve a decent school maybe just not for me...

Something I would like to see changed is the scheduling of classes. There used to be hour lunches, but administration took it away because of student behavioral issues. When I attended the school, it happened because lower grades were misbehaving, not the upperclassmen, so as seniors, we suffered for their actions.

Dacula high school has its ups and downs, but our community is what really pulls it all together, and we deserve our "One Family, One Dacula." Although we have fights like any other school, and maybe not as many AP's, I love our school support, our teachers, and the friends I made in our tight knit Dacula community.
