If the student is academically motivated and already successful, Douglas is great. A wide range of APs, with teachers that will support you. Counsellors are eager to get kids into college. If the kid already struggles though, Douglas is not very good at supporting them.

It was a good experience for both of my kids.they met a lot of kids. It's not perfect but it was overall good.

One of my favorite parts of being here are the friends I have here. Given that every high school student in this valley, and some of the surrounding valleys go here, virtually everyone my age I've known goes here; and it generally leads to people fitting in the their cliques quite well. Disregarding socializing though, I do love the academic programmes. I'm taking some college courses for a very minimal price, and the school has also payed for me to become certified for F1 welding, lifeguarding, and my OSHA 10. Next year, I will be taking a teaching course involving working at local elementary and middle schools. There's not really too much I don't like about this school. Other than the fact that it certainly wasn't designed to handle as many students as it has, & the lack of lockers, it's pretty nice. So overall—and besides from the occasional runaway, or underage marriage—there's really nothing to change about this school. (Except lockers, please give us lockers.)

Douglas High School offers many AP courses, electives, technical classes, clubs, and sports. The teachers and staff as a whole are wonderful and conservative in their values and truly care about the students. DHS produces high achieving citizens.

This school has some nepotism issues. Not happy with it at all. This is my personal opinion, but if you are attending or will be attending this high school, you will notice it.
