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 last four years here at Diamond High haven't been too bad. The teachers from my freshman to junior year were absolutely amazing. They went over everything that would be on finals or EOCs. My senior year has been a little challenging because of one teacher but luckily I can take a dual credit class next semester to help with that. Some things I wish would've changed was the teacher-student respect. Teachers don't show their students respect and continually put them down on a daily basis. That's the only thing I wish would've changed in this school.

I've gone to Diamond my whole life and I've seen it change year after year however if there was one thing that I would change it would be the fact that teachers and faculty have no obligation to stay. The school board offers them no incentives to stay and most leave within a few years forcing the kids to have to adapt over and over again to new teachers.

The teachers at Diamond High School, for the most part are great. However, there are some teachers that I feel are not suitable for the job. Most of our teacher will go above and beyond to help a student, and I feel like they really genuinely care about us. Then we have a couple of teachers who I feel do not care as much.
