Doherty recently got a new building, obviously giving them a great new look to the public. Certain things have improved but the school as a whole is just a boring highschool, especially when based in Worcester.

6/27/2023
It was an overall great experience compared to my other school which didnt have as much opportunitys as Doherty. Along with early college, national honors society, and so much more.

Very sociable and accepting student body with several large student groups that are subtly competitive culturally and academi...
