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.

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

Looking back at the 4 years I've attended Dumas High School, I can say I've learned a lot. You learn life lessons that will have a huge impact on your everyday life. You make friends, lose friends, but overall you get a great education. The teachers at Dumas High School are always striving for the students to do their very best. When You have no one to talk to, you can always count on the staff members to be there for support.

My overall experience at Dumas High I would say has been very rewarding. If I had any problems r needed help with any classwork, the teachers I have or had were and is very helpful to me. I have enjoyed playing in the band and being apart of the clubs and basketball team. I think the one thing I would want to change at Dumas High would be the emphasis that is placed upon football ore than any other sports. I believe money spent and just the attention that is put forward as well as effort should be placed on all activities at the school, especially if all are very getting good results.
