Doss High School has an excellent business and marketing program with many opportunities to prepare you for the future and get you started early. Their programs will include collaborations with your peers, field trips, and competitions. All of this would go through, and organizations called Deca. I highly recommend joining this program.

My personal experience at Doss Highschool has been both good and bad. For my first year there , social wise , everything was great. I met lots of new people and creates loads of new friends. But everything else wise , it's not so great. Especially academically and with the staff members. Some of the teachers are cool most of the time but some aren't so chill.
