The experience at my school has been rather unique. At Design Science, you do both college and high school classes. As such, more is expected of us, but we get many freedoms normal high schoolers do not get. Although we are on the campus of Fresno City College, which is public, I still feel safe at school, as Fresno City College's police officers are proactive to threats. As a high school, we are also small, having less than 500 students.

Design Science Middle College High School offers a unique experience with challenging academics, college-level classes, and supportive resources that help students prepare for future college and career goals.
3/14/2024
Design Science Middle College High School is an interesting and unique school as it has only about 250 students. This important factor creates an environment where you become very close with your fellow classmates. The worst aspects of this school is it's like of variety as it uses 90% of its resources helping students academically. I would love to see more funding and support for clubs and possibly sports.

I was one of the students that graduated from the 2nd class at DSHS. While admitting myself to this school, I was told and I understood the sacrifices I had to make to get a head start in life. Relating to the previous comment...... Even though this school lacked student involvements in sports, danc...
