In order to change the directions of this school, there needs to be more participation from the parents! School board meeting tonight. I will be there. This school needs changes as a whole. Teachers would be able to do alot more if parents would get behind them instead of on them. I have went w/ my child for weeks and surprised her and them on serveral days. Most of you would not believe how our kids act. I am ready for the community to get active instead of sitting around doing nothing. Remember these kids are the future!

My oppinion this school is great my only problem with it is that they have 'Freshman Acadamy' and they are getting rid of that next year. The classes are amazing and they have great electives to choose from. The only thing that any parent would be concerned with at this school is the learning style. If the student doesn't want to learn the teachers won't put in an effort to teach them. In my oppinon, thats not a bad thing.

I have two daughters at SDHS, a senior and a freshman. Both were homeschooled from kindergarten through 8th grade. We put them in public school because they had a desire to interact with other kids on a daily basis. We had heard many negative comments about SDHS, but we decided to give it a fair chance. We have not been disappointed. Our oldest has taken all the honors and AP classes that are offered. She has a 4.0 GPA and has scored a 29 on the ACT. Her coursework has been challenging, and her teachers have been excellent. They have inspired her and encouraged her desire for knowledge. The principals have been quick to respond every time I've brought an issue to them; I can't say enough good things about them. They are sincere in their desire to see students succeed. I recommend SDHS!

I totally agree with the comments about the administration being more concerned with keeping their jobs. If you have any concerns they dismiss you and will not listen to the children or the parents. If a parent brings up a issue it it pushed or shoved under the rug. I will eventually have to speak to the school board about concerns for anyone to even listen
