Dutch Fork High is clearly a great school preparing its' students well for future endevors. This is clearly seen at any major university in South Carolina where DFHS graduates are at the top of their classes. Though these elements that continue to rank DF as the top school in South Carolina have obvious beneficiaries, there are drawbacks that can have a very negative affect on a DF student even after graduation. Because of DF's 'standards of excellence,' the competitve nature of the school is extremley intense and at times can result in a student's poor self- image. Furthermore and an even bigger issue stems from the socio- economic status of the students that attend DFHS. As the school serves a very affluent area of Columbia, diversity (racially and economically) is very minimal. This being said, graduates have such a 'skewed view on reality.' As a graduate, I have seen both sides.

My child hates this school. I understand why! The teachers are unmotivating and the students are disrespectful! My daughter cannot wait to graduate!
