I like Dover High School because it really shows growth between each grade. There are a few kids that get in trouble over and over and it doesn't seem like they are ever out of trouble. The teachers could really do a lot better with explaining the course that they teach by really going into detail better.

I love the staff/admin. They all work towards getting the children to where they need to be. It's not hard to find the room you are looking for. Principal is very very good.

Dover High School is a very friendly school with passionate teachers who want the students to succeed and coaches that want to win and make the program better than it was when they came. The student body is very close knit and willing to help each other. The only thing I would want to see change is better funding for the education and certain programs within the school.
