9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am really surprised by the negative reviews below. I can't help but wonder if the last one was written out of anger over the changing elementary school start times. While it is not true that the school does not have a second emergency access road (it does) and not true that children can't talk to each other at lunch (they can) I am most surprised by the categorization of the school leadership. I have never met a more phenomenal principal, and between my kids and multiple moves we have been at seven elementary schools. I have experienced nothing but warmth and a true dedication to educating all children inclusively.Parent Review5y ago - Dover-Sherborn Regional High School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageDover-Sherborn High School is exceptional in academics and has faculty that genuinely care about the students. And while the education is rigorous, the opportunity for the students to learn more about areas the are interested in is always available. I appreciate the hard work the administration did to keep the kids in school during the pandemic. And, as a parent of a child who learns differently, the school has helped her not feel out of place while ensuring she gets the most of her secondary school education. The school has a no tolerance policy on bullying. Very excited to see what the next chapter brings with a new district superintendent that came from Boston Latin.Parent Review4y ago - Dover-Sherborn Regional Middle School
