I was a student here. I guess I am just not the small-town type, because when I graduated I joined the Air Force to get the heck out of that town. I would have joined the French Foreign Legion if I had to. I was soooo happy to finally meet people who were curious about the world and life. I would rather live in a Turkish village in the mountains than return to this town.

I am a student a Doyline High School and i would have to say that it is by far the best school i've been to. I've moved quite a bit in my school years. When my mom moved us to doyline i hadnt expected to stay until i graduated. I am a senior this year and proud to be a Doyline Graduate. We might be a small school and we may not have very many options but our teachers are great and only a few don't know what thery are doing. Mr. Rolwland is our new principle and he is actually doing some good for our school. If you don't like our school then leave and don't put us down because some of us are acutally happy here.

I moved to Doyline from a medium sized town in the North. I must say that I am wasting away here! I have been here for quite awhile now, and each day I become more and more disappointed. Yes I have made some really great friends and am fitting in well, but the school work is practically elementry. I am not challenged at all, and I actually feel like I'm losing brain cells just attending. It is ridiculous, I have a math teacher who is actually an English teacher and not qualified to teach math, but does because there is no one else. I have a science teacher only certified to teach physical science and biology, but teaches chemistry and Biology 2 (even though the teacher claims he hasn't been given a course guide for biology two and doesn't know what he is doing). Also, it is a town of drugs!

We now have a new principal at Doyline. I feel that he is going to be great for the school. However, baseball and basketball are the only thing this school offers. Most teachers give special attention to the ball players. They get by with things that others don't. This is very unfair. I feel Doyline needs to bring back Home Ec and offer more classes that makes kids college prepared. Also more shop classes for guys who need to learn a trade and don't plan to attend college. Mr Heflin is a great teacher,leader,and friend and very capable of teaching this young men a trade.

I am a former student at Doyline and I am so glad that my mom decided to move me to another school this coming year. Not because of my friends because I will miss them but because of the teachers and school period. The teachers arent there for you unless you are one of the

I have two kids that up until this school year attended Doyline. In this little town and school it's all about who you are. The teachers I delt with were awful!

I am from a small town in Texas and I thought that it was the worst until I put my kids in Doyline. The kids have nothing to keep them driven. If you don't play basketball or baseball then you are a no body. You would think that because of the low class volume that there would be nothing but high scores on everything but that isn't the case at all. If you think because this is a small school that your child will get that extra push they might need don't. If they can attend another school other than Doyline I would suggest you take them there.

I am a student at doyline High School and it does nothing for my education. This school and classes don't challenge me compared to ALL my other schools. There is too much drama and I feel uncomftorable in the uniforms. There is not a lot of extra-currucular activities so there is a lot of drinking, smoking, and dipping. They don't have a lot of class choices like Spanish, Home Economics, Theatre, ROTC, etc. I have not learned anything good from here, and the teachers can't teach good because they have to make sure shirts are tucked in, belts are on, the students wear uniform shirts under their jackets. This really cuts in to the class time.

Doyline High Shoool is by far one of the best in the world for the size and location. I have heard that the teacher quality has declined since i graduated in 2000 but there are still the staple ingredients to make it a great school. As far as it not preparing you for college...i graduated from one of hte most prestigious colleges of the south, graduated in four years, and now have a job with a nation wide company and have never at any point in time struggled from my high school days. As far as Mr. Stewart goes...I am proud to say that I played softball under him for four years and there is not a principal in the world who can hold a candle to his care and dedication. He is a remarkable man and Doyline High School is a remarkable place!
