My overall experience in Dumas high school is great. I had a lot of fun connecting with my teachers and friends more often. But, with every positive there's a negative. I didn't like how some of the other students distracted me from pursuing greater knowledge. I would really like to see some sort of change in the way my school runs its curriculum. I believe my school should allow us, the students of the future, to follow our own path to become leaders, not workers.

I like the fact it was a learning experience of maturity and growth. Changes that need to be made is open campus A Classes 4 classes per day same with B day and B Classes Mon-Thrus Also on Friday's have fast Friday's, so you can learn more with more class time, longer practice for athletics.

The teachers need to be more concern about the student education. They do not need to be concerned about certain people or race.
