For living in a small town, you don't experience as much as being in the big city. Being a Tiger at Dunsmuir High School has been the most enjoyable experience for myself.

The classes offered at Dunsmuir High are ones that I would expect at a continuation school. The teachers are very laxed on due dates, not much responsibility is placed on the students, work is very easy and not at all challenging, alot of time is wasted doing nothing because of the extra time due to block schedule. The workload is not at all what I expected for high school.

They are alright. Kind of boring though but they do their best to help us with whatever we need and work around our schedules and stuff.

Teachers were verbally abusive to students and diminished the confidence of already vulnerable students. I am now in university, and working in a computational chemistry research laboratory, but my success in life is purely in spite the experience I had as a student at this "school".
