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 have been attenting Doddridge County Schools since Kindergarten and have always enjoyed going here. Doddridge County Highschool has student envolvement with sports, clubs, classes, and more. I always enjoy going to cross country practice and having 3 state titles with our team and going to football games to support our team. I always feel happy and safe at this school.

Great support system. They want you to succeed. The best experience was with the new college readiness advisor that helped me with life after high school. There were not any bad experiences. I would like teachers to use different teaching techniques.
