I love how close/family friendly this school is. Everyone here feels and acts like a family. Although there does sometimes seem to be quite of bit of drama, we all get it figured out together. There's never a time you should feel alone, everyone is here to support each other.

I like how small the class sizes are. We have a very supportive community. Our teachers want to see us succeed while challenging us. Since we are a smaller school there isn't really a whole lot for us to do but sports. We have a really good sports program. Even though we do not have the AP classes like other schools we have good academics. Since we do not have the AP classes our school offers for us to do online college classes. By doing these college classes I feel makes us college ready. I really enjoy going to De Beque High School.

Maybe, we the parents knew we had a problem child and came back to a place that worked for us, looking for some help and support. Hoping for some support and acceptance is usually not too much to ask from a public school system. Not everyone's kids are advanced and excel at everything. I guess that...

Currently, this school is doing everything right! It's had it's fair share of bumps in the road, but is on the right track now with the current administration. For those of you reading the poor reviews, consider that the parent writing it can't use proper grammar and take it with a grain of salt. So...
