I like the Choir in this school, Our Choir teacher (7th and 8) is really passionate. So is the 6th Grade Choir teacher. Our PLTW teacher is good at teaching us, and has good humor. The Art teacher is nice and I think she does a good job teaching at Dover. The PE teachers are good and care about being our teachers. They even put music on when we have PE. The experience is interesting.

This school is lacking in some areas. They REALLY need to improve school lunches there.Some students said they got food poisoning. Unhealthy packaged food is served, just carrots and lettuce maybe celery in peanut butter. Thats your salad bar. Fruit is available, not mature though. French Fries are awful and Dominoes Pizza is served everyday. And the Tray is awful. Tornado special is served in plastic wrappings under heaters. Also, there are students I know that don't do their homework. For students that don't do their assignment on time have what we call "Study Room" after school to finish their work but also pay time for not doing homework. The grading scales are different here and they have higher standards. Facebook addiction and Dating peer pressure exist in this school. I think it interferes with education and social life too much. If your going for a good career for collge, not highschool dropouts I would not recommend this school. The teachers are caring, but the students barely study, most of them at least. If you get a Honor Roll, you will get a card called a "Tornado Card" It will give you a coupon for three things.
