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.

Teachers had no control over students. School lunch was subpar, and security earned itself a bad reputation for being homophobic and violent. The Pre-Law and Pre-Med programs were okay, but student behavior was simply unacceptable. Would not recommend this school to anyone.

Good pre-med program when I used to go there. Think there needs a little more discipline for student, and more security.

This school is horrible. The teachers are beyond lazy, and do not effectively respond to anything. The school did a poor job of keeping parents informed. The staff members are rude.

William Dandy is a good school for academics but there needs to be more enforced security on the premises. There have been fights and kids jumping other kids which all endangers the safety of a child
