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.

My Derby High Experience is fun, everyone is really school oriented as am I. I have fun participating in school events and extracurricular activities. The worst parts about the school is that they serve the same thing every Monday for lunch

The best part of my experience is knowing that there are a plethora of resources offered to students, especially when it comes to community activities. I would like to see a little more cultural representation.

The classes are very limited due to the small amount of students. I would like to see more classes available

I moved here from a different state not knowing anyone and this school was very welcoming teachers and staff are very nice. Also the teachers are very good at explaining things into a deeper depth if you need it. Way better then my old school.
