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.

On the other side as an alumni, I see how important it is that the high school one attends sets them up well for their next steps - whether that be the workforce or moving onto a university. Sometimes high school felt like a joke. Not every class was productive and I do not think it helped me transition well to college life. The faculty and staff were amazing. I loved all of the administration.

I graduated in 2023 and loved my experience at Daphne High School. The atmosphere was always welcoming and there are tons of extra curricular opportunities. In the AP, IB, and dual enrollment courses, the teachers really cared about the students and their well-being.
