DeKalb County High School, was nothing special and often failed me. It was lacking in resources and even the teachers at the time lacked life. Nothing outstanding, not even mid. I was able to graduate and continue my education, but that it because of my own motivation, not because I felt this school helped me in anyway. Unless you were involved in sports, or knew a teacher personally in some way, you school-life was spent in basically darkness without help or a friendly face. I graduate early, along with many other bright students, but I feel this was because the children were especially bright and motivated, not the school or teachers. The only good thing through my high school life was the library and librarian. Even those changed; they got a new librarian my last year and having visited a year prior, I am saddened to see that the library is a computer room (good for technical reasons) with only a single wall of of books.

I couldn't ask for a better school for my children. The school creates a loving welcoming environment for them to learn.

The teachers and staff are absolutely wonderful!
