Decatur High School is not a good school. The place is run down and falling apart. I do not feel safe going to school everyday. But the teachers there really care about the kids and want the best for them.
6/28/2023
My experience at Decatur high school has been great, most teachers are nice, helpful and supportive. The only "issues" I've experienced is the lack of communication with counselors due to their hectic schedules. But the career and college specialist is so great with reaching out and educating kids on the opportunities outside of school that it makes up for the absences.

it wasn't the best but it was enjoyable, most of the people were nice. The counselors were helpful and always were willing to help with whatever

One of the worst high schools you could ever go to. Counselors are lazy and never respond promptly, class sizes are huge leading to there typically not being enough seats in a class to fit all students. Some teachers are good but most just can't handle how terrible the students make it. Lots of the...

Terrible high school. Faculty doesn't care about the students and they make very little effort to keep the students safe.
3/20/2019
Solid 2 stars. The resources are there and I think for the majority of students it's a good fit. Most aspire to attend UW and if that's your goal, you will achieve it. If you aspire to not attend college and pick up a trade to work, you have to dig deep and do your own research and I think that's un...

I move around a lot but when I was a junior I had to go to Decatur. Decatur is a terrible school teachers don't care and won't help you. It is also like a prison at Decatur it is ridiculous they put up baby gates to lock you into areas. but the worst part is that 50% of the students smoke and drink...
