I HAVE TWO TENNAGERS ABOUT TO GRADUATE IN TWO YEARS THAT ATTENDED DWJH AND THEY BOTH LIKED THE SCHOOL AS WELL AS THEIR TEACHERS... MY SON NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH TEACHERS OR STUDENTS NEIHER WITH THE STAFF... ANYTIME HE NEEDED HELP WITH ANY SUBJECT THE TEACHERS WERE ALWAYS READY TO HELP... EVEN AFTER GRADUATING FROM DWJH HE STILL CAME BACK TO THE SCHOOL MEETINGS AND WHEN THEY HAD FOOTBALL GAMES TO VISIT TEACHERS AN ESPECIALLY MR DAVIS... MY DAUGHTER LIKED THE SCHOOL... SHE GOES EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE TO SEE HER FORMER TEACHERS... ALSO WHENEVER SHE NEEDED HELP WITH ANY SUBJECT HER TEACHERS WERE HAPY TO HELP... AS A PARENT I DID WITNESS A FIGHT OR TWO... SOME STUDENTS WEREN'T AT THEIR BEST BUT I BLAME THE PARENTS NOT THE TEACHERS... THE TEACHERS ARE THERE TO TEACH NOT TO BABYSIT... THERE ARE ON CAMPUS POLICE IVE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT THEM FROM MY KIDS OR THEIR FRIENDS... THIS WAS BACK IN 2014 AND 2015.. NOW I HAVE MY TWO YOUNGEST ATTENDING ONE ABOUT TO GRADUATE TO THE 9TH GRADE THEY BOTH LIKE THE SCHOOL A LOT AND THEY LIKE THEIR TEACHERS AS WELL AS THE STAFF. AS FOR THOSE WHOM COMPLAIN ABOUT THE TEACHERS BEFORE QUICKLY BLAMING THEM MAKE SURE YOUR CHILD ISNT THE ONE MAKING OR CAUSING THE PROBLEMS. I DO HEAR ABOUT TEACHERS CHOOSING THEIR SPECIAL STUDENTS OR BEING RACIST BUT HATS WHY PARENTS CAN SET A MEETING WITH THE PRINCIPAL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MOST PARENTS THINK BECAUSE THE FOUL MOUTH INFRONT OF THEIR CHILD ABOUT A TEACHER OR ANY STAFF OF THEIR CHILD SCHOOL IS GOING TO FIX A PROBLEM, REMEMBER CHILDREN LEARN AND MIMIC FROM WHAT THEY ARE TAUGHT AT HOME . IM JUST AN HONEST PAREN WHOM HAVE SEEN A LOT DURING THE YEARS AND WAS A FULL TIME TEACHER HELPER ( VOLUNTEER ) FOR SEVEN YEARS. PARENTS GET INVOLVED WITH YOUR CHILDRENS SCHOOL IT MOTIVATES YOUR CHILDREN INTO BECOMING MORE INTERESTED IN LEARNING

Great School! My 3 daughters have attended DWJH, and loved it! Highly recommended. I have had family moving into neighborhood so their children can attend. Teachers/Staff highly educated and have been there forever.
