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 found that Denfeld has good resources for college. Teachers are there to help you out if you ask. There are lots of available scholarships for 1st Generation College students. I have felt un safe at times. If you are taking the advanced classes it is good as the sketchy people don't take the difficult classes. If you focus on your education you will do well there.

I like that Denfeld is inclusive of others. We have all kinds of group of people and I believe that each person is included in the school. Furthermore, compared to other schools, I believe Denfeld has the best school spirit, as we are always the loudest and proudest at events. As well, Denfeld has very caring staff that is always looking out for students. They always want the best for the kids at our school.

Denfeld is a school with many cliques. It's not really inclusive because everyone has their own groups and activities. The classes are good but some teachers don't know what or how to teach their students. Our school as a whole, doesn't have any school spirit. There's an ongoing problem that has yet been fixed, which is students keep vaping or smoking in the bathrooms which has made the school close most of its bathrooms so the people who actually need to use them can't. The overall vibe of the school is depressing.
