I enjoyed the dual enrollment opportunities and the senior class advisor was wonderful. The theater department was great as well. I did not like the lunchroom options at time and certain staff members were not helpful.

Demopolis High School is a good school for where its located. Its built on a swamp but the layout of the school doesn't feel like it is. I've attended this school for 3 years and there's not much diversity, mostly just white African Americans and Latinos. The teachers are great, they would love to help you anytime. For a school our size there's a lot of sports and clubs you can join. I really haven't had any past experiences about this school, but my best experience was getting a bomb threat on the very first day of school.

This *public* school, once a year, has mandatory assembly during which a man comes in and preaches christianity, accompanied by a christian band. This is wholly inappropriate conduct for a public school. Many of the students who are not christian find this assembly to not only be a horrendous waste...
