4/30/2024
Lack of support for students with disabilities/differences. Feels almost exclusive. Some questionable/strange teachers with bad attitude.
6/27/2023
My four years at Jonathan Dayton High School has been memorable. I've met amazing people and my teachers were incredible. I feel well prepared for the next chapter in my life.
5/7/2022
Made some life long friends here and also had the opportunity to get a great education. I don't have any specific problems other then some of the teachers teaching style.
GreatSchools Reviews
8/11/2025
First of all, if you are a student, you should feel safe and happy to go to school. This school doesn’t provide any of that. It gives students stress and allows bullying. The students are bullies okay, they are still kids, understandable. But what about the teachers or other staff members? No, no, n...
4/30/2024
There is clearly more bad staff than good, but the few good ones are what made up the 2 stars instead of 1. The school conditioning/heating system is pretty bad, unequal temperatures in classrooms sometimes severe. I will call them out on this: faculty fails to do things about complaints such as tec...

If it wasn't for a specific guidance counselor, I would not be writing this message. I was severely depressed and even with doctor's recommendations this s...
3/20/2021
I have found that Dayton has provided a great selection of classes with challenging work. My child is excelling in school and I feel will be very well prepared for university like my friends children that have left this school district to go on to top notch schools like Penn and Harvard.
