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

5.0 Senior

1/25/2024

This school is very welcoming to transfer students who want to pursue college and they are very welcoming to LGBTQ+ students. This school does everything it can to make sure students feel comfortable. A lot of the teachers here are friendly towards the students and teach them very well. The music classes here are very good and prepare students who are very new at their instruments and those who are experienced.

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.
