I think Dexter High school is a great school. The school rallies together for a cause they believe in. They also rally together when the students at the school need help.

I have been going to Dexter Schools since I was little. The experience overall has never stayed the same and has changed over the years. The small schools make the environment feel like a family. But as with many families there can be problems. I was definitely more of a quiet kid and did not have the same opportunities at friends as if I went to a bigger school. Dexter high only has 400 students and that compared to some schools in Roswell is very little. My graduating class has maybe 60 kids in it. It can give off the vibe of being in college but with the addition of immaturity. Overall Dexter is not a bad place to raise a kid. It can give opportunities that other schools cannot. The staff here are the kindest people on the planet. I have grown to appreciate them as I got older.

Dexter High School is a small school with less than 500 students. As a student I can say that DHS is a very close community; everybody knows everybody. We all help each other out and cheer each other on. If we succeed it is going to be from the amazing support the community gives us. As well as the support we receive from our teachers and peers. The most lovable thing about Dexter High School is how close of a community we are. Dexter is a great school.
