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 would say my experience in Dillon High School is different because I am the first Venezuelan who is graduating from Dillon High, and the students sometimes exclude me because I'm not from the U.S. Still, I would say that those experiences make me better academically. Also, the teacher would help me. But something I would change is how counselors would treat the kids because they don't have the best attitude towards the children.

Dillon High gave me many wonderful memories. Some of the teachers were great and were very helpful in our success. They made school an happy environment to kids who were going through things at home. Those teachers will forever be in my heart as I move forward with my journey through life.
