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.

The overall experience at DNHS is excellent. There are varieties of clubs and activities to do after school. Everyone is involved in sports and if you aren't there are different opportunities to get involved. The staff and teachers are friendly. They try to help you succeed. Overall it is a good experience.
