My son is a sophomore at DC High School. He’s been in the district since Kindergarten. He’s an introverted nerd. Smart as a whip. DC has always been a special place where he can be himself. His teachers have been supportive of his nerdiness and provided him with the necessary tools to succeed. The administration has been awesome. Granted, I can’t speak to the high school staff. He’s getting to that age when we don’t need to be involved in his day-to-day education. But he’s got a medical impairment, and we’ve never had a problem with the admin and teachers keeping up with his needs. I can’t compare it with the other schools in the state. I don’t have a kid at those. But in his 10 years so far at Deer Creek, we haven’t needed to intervene any more than any of my friends whose kids go elsewhere. I think you have to ignore the 1-star and 5-star reviews. They’re not realistic. No public school can be that good or that bad across the board. People who get bullied at school have a completely different perspective than those who are the most popular. People who find one teacher with whom they feel 100% supported find success. Deer Creek has many of those teachers. Some people just haven’t found them yet.

I went to this school in 7th grade I left because of the bullying and I was uncomfortable. There was this one teacher who would stare at mine and other girls breasts and butts. It was so bad we would all wear jackets in his class. I went to the principal and councilor with this issue they both said i made it up,wanted attention, and laughed. I was not the only girl who felt this way and I was not the only girl who went to the principal and councilor with this issue.Nothing was done. He still works there. I do NOT recommend this school.

The school has fantastic teachers, and a great community.
