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 best parts are everything they offer senior/junior year. Like if you wanna so a trade, they pay for trade school. If you wanna do college they pay for concurrent classes. The worst parts are the first years as theres not a whole lot to do and not much involvement from the teachers in any of your years there.

Very sport-orientated school, with little focus on other extracurricular activities. Does have opportunities for interning and concurrent work.

I graduated in 1979 from Duncan High School. The music program was excellent. It provided me with performance experience, and the opportunity to continually improve myself. I also took business classes and college prep courses. I discovered when I got out into the world that Duncan schools have a fi...
