    "after last year, I did not think I would get more dissappointed then I was ....I am shocked beyond shock at the rate this school has gone down. Between the school administration and staff: the select parent commitee that is run by a family and does not respect the point of view of other parents: then the Superintendent. I thought 2 or 3 years agi when changes were made in the district..I really felt that things would change for the better.....boy was I wrong..."

    "His mother tells me that he gets good grade's A"s and B's. Now let me ask the Administrations there, Is he prepared to transfer to lets just say, Loyal High school, will he have the knowledge base to be a competitive student at a private High school? I have been to that school and I am not very impress and let me tell you it does not come close to the private school my daughter goes to in Orange County. Believe me if I could, he would not be in any public school, maybe but for a few."

    "I really like how Dexter supports my boys. If they do poorly on a test, they are given help and then get a chance to take the test again. They have improved their grades during their time at Dexter."

    "Every school has problems and Dexter is a work in progress. With that in mind, the progress is remarkable. There has been a schedule change to assist students who need extra help. Dexter is implementing "Professional Learning Communities" that has been so successful at the high school. The school is huge and so progress is slower than I'd wish. Dexter's primary problems can be put at the feet of parents who raise their children with a poor values system. Most negative comments I've seen on this site are the direct result of poor or non-existant parenting. The people skills of SOME(not all by any stretch) of the office staff could be improved. Something I'm sure will be addressed over time."

    "I was told about this website and wanted to talk about how great the GATE Open House was surprised when I found so many rude comments about individuals and the staff. I thought this website was about the students achievements, academics & special events not individual vendettas. This is very sad. I am happy to say that I have always been treated with respect by all the employees. They work very hard and care deeply about the students at Dexter. The teachers and administrators go above and beyond to make sure students get the help they need. Like this GATE Open house, the time and effort that the students and staff put into this was immeasurable. I look forward to next years!"
