4.0 Senior

Dekalb has amazing opportunities for all student interests from the arts to agriculture. The school has provided me with an amazing four-year experience and allowed me to pursue my fair share of interests. Especially in agriculture with classes ranging from animal science to vet science.

I like the sports here at DeKalb. I play football and do track. My senior year football has been great and tracks I usually do good. My grades are really good as well. I have a 3.8 GPA out of 4. Overall I've only had 1 C in all of my high school.

The only teachers who taught and helped instill values and work ethic into the students have just been forced out by an administration that values it’s bottom line more than the education of their students. Save your child the heartache and have them attend a school that cares about their developmen...

If you're wanting an unfriendly, unwelcome atmosphere where the students are judge mental & bully each other & the teachers are biased toward the students & can't update grades online in a timely manner. The staff is there to harass kids rather than help anyone for the most part - then gladly send y...
