From the first information request call to graduation, a teacher or administrator cared for my teen and us for 4 full years during the most troubling times we've experienced. We were very new to Danvers and I couldn't speak more highly of the reception I felt from the very beginning. My son started late his freshman year and yet, he had the same counselor from day one. Athletic offerings abound for any type of interest, the list of clubs to join are endless. I couldn't believe how quickly the Principal rallied staff, parents and community leaders to get us back to virtual, then hybrid, then in person. Assistance is always available. Oftentimes, test scores are not the real measurement of success. I witnessed my son flourish and grow into a young man thanks to the dedication from TOP to BOTTOM and everyone in between that he received.

Danvers High School is a hidden gem. I've sent three children through and have one more to go. Compare its academic programs to Hamilton-Wenham and other top local districts and you'll see that DHS has a greater choice in AP, Honors and CP level courses. Whatever level your child can handle is available for them here -- even if its AP in one subject and CP or basic in another -- the school can meet your child's learning needs. Strong school system administration and great high school leadership make for a positive and nurturing learning environment. Positive school culture is very welcoming. My children had plenty of good college choices and found themselves very well prepared for college. We couldn't be happier with DHS.

My grandmother graduated here in 1917, my Mom in 1942 and myself in 1973. My four children graduated from Danvers High also. We all turned out great, I'm a Doctor and I know other professionals and business leaders as a result of DHS. They are building a new facility now 2011 and it's plans are amazing. I would recommend Danvers High School for a quality education in a wonderful town north of Boston. Sincerely, Dr. Barron ~ Class of '73
