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.

Just like with any school, there are good and bad experiences. For the most part my time at DSMS was very positive. I enjoyed the teachers and still keep in touch with a few. I was involved in athletics as well as several clubs. You get out of a school what you put into it. I recommend getting involved, attending games and dances etc.
