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 loved this school. I went to this school from K-6 and I don't regret it. The teachers here are all full of life and obviously love their job. Their adminstration can be a bit strict though. This school has been an amazing experience for me despite the schools academic scores. This is due to the schools lack of resources being a Title 1 school. I still love Dodson and I will have teachers I'll never forget here.
