I enjoy being at our school a lot. I think that we have a strong community. My grade is amazing. I feel like we all get along so well compared to other schools and other grades. The only downside of my school would be the quality of the buildings. Our school was built in 2002 and hasn't seen an update. It feels a little dark compared to other schools in the district.

At Dallas Center - Grimes, you are excepted for who you are. The teachers are always willing to help no matter what. The classes that are offered to students very based on education and student requirements. Going to school everyday is something that I enjoy and look forward to at Dallas Center - Grimes.
