I graduated from this school in 2013. I did not receive an adequate education here. When I got to college, I realized I was far behind what other students had learned at their larger high schools. I don't know how any teacher ever passed me in math. I had to retake math in college, which cost me a fortune. This site cannot be an accurate representation of the student's abilities. There's no way test scores are "above average". The same teachers are still at the school and I don't blame them, but no one really cared if I learned the information. If you want your student to go to an Ivy League, this is not the place to educated them. But if you just want your kid to graduate, this school is sufficient. Great place for your kid to wrestle and win a championship; the school only cares about sports. Even the kids who get college wrestling scholarships rarely end up graduating. This school spent a million dollars on a new football field but nothing on improving the quality of education. Also, the windows DO NOT OPEN which I believe is a major safety hazard.

The best thing that can happen to this school is the state take it over!!Due to a majority of school board members actions Dundee has earned the nickname "The Mine Field' watch were you step. If a certain member of the board doesn't like you watch out he will get rid of you and the majority of the school board memebers will follow him like sheep. Thanks to this person they are now in yet another superintendent search, (sixth one since Bob left) a elementary principle search, a Technology specialist, and a transportation director just to name a few. The high school principle is off to Iraq for a year and the middle school principle is on maternity leave! They have to cut over a million dollars out of the budget with the current interm superintendent who probably could care less since he leaves in June! This school is having some serious problems all becasue of a few memebers of the school board that need to be recalled. Can no longer recomend it, glad I no longer have kids in there.

If you saw the behavior of the some of the Teachers, you would understand the problem. My daughters math teacher uses her cell phone during class. The focus is definately not on students.
