Many general in my family has went to Dora the people there are usually nice; the teachers want you to succeed and will try their best to help you. It's not the best school when it comes to academics but there are opportunities available for you if you feel more advance that you could do.

I am currently a Junior here at Dora High and I love it. DHS is a smaller school that has been teacher families in our community for generations and its roots run deep in many of our communities families. It is a smaller school but there are many perks about it including being able to know everyone and being able to show out. I am so glad I made the decision to come to Dora as a Freshman and wouldn't have it any other way
