My experience at Dunwoody High School has been great! I've made a lot of new friends that I wouldn't have met otherwise. The academics are great and the amount of extracurriculars we have is outstanding.
3/30/2025
The best part that I have experienced at my high school is the school spirit. My principal always tries to make sure that we are involved and make the school such a lively place, but the worst part is the lack of focus in the fine arts department compared to sports for example football. what I would like to see changed is to put some effort into the fine arts department because that's such an important aspect to a lot of students live and it's a way of expression but the auditorium is rundown. There's lights from 1970 when the school first open, the sound booth doesn't work completely so I would like to see more effort putting into that but overall my experience has done with high school has been great. I've made some amazing friends. Have met some amazing people that have changed my life. and I wouldn't change my experience at all.

all there is is fights, drugs, bullying and many more bad things. You are not safe at this school.

Not sure what the previous post is all about. Dunwoody is a great school with excellent teachers and respect for special needs students. I’m in my last year here and this schools reputation is well known amongst top schools like Ga Tech and Ga State.

lots and lots of bullying, i go here now as we get denied food in the lunch line even though we dont bring food because dunwoody cant afford more food. i see kids making fun of special needs students aswell as coaching staff and admin.

I am not sure what the previous reviewer is referring to. I was a minority student at Dunwoody H.S. and the vast majority of minority students are excelling and the statistics prove that out. I was able to get accepted into a very good University and the education I received at Dunwoody is a major r...
