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.

I have been to three different schools and Dierks has been the best. They are there to help you and teach you need to know things. I enjoy going there and even though its a Highschool, they are willing to help with my college work and my scholarships and help me fill them out.

Dierks High School is not a very big school, so you wil get to know everyone there, including the teachers. Because of this, nearly everyone has a good relationship with one another. Of course there will be a few bad eggs, but those are few and far inbetween. Overall my experience as been great. I highly reconmend this school.
