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.

I'm so glad I'm graduating out of the school. This school is not the best and needs some help. The administration is worried about all the wrong things

My experience at dymally was okay. I don't love it but i also don't hate it. I feel like the school can do great things but they look more into other things than actual stuff they need to work on. I feel like every event is almost the same and they don't always treat everyone with the same respect. There's alot of favoritism and you can tell it off. I would love to see more inclusivity and events with hispanics/latinos.

My experience so far at Dymally high school is going great, the staff and counselor are very helpful and kind always looking out for us. The teachers are great too help us to make it to college and be successful in life. We get decent events like Mexican heritage and black history month. Overall this school is great for students who are looking for a close by school.
