The teachers at Dakota Valley truly put the needs of students first. When you think of South Dakota schools, good school districts is not the first thing that probably comes to mind due to the state being the lowest paying teacher salary rate, but the teachers at Dakota Valley are like no others. They assure that the students are comprehending the information as well as making the learning process fun. It’s not everyday you hear of a high school student enjoying school, but Dakota Valley could sure change other students prospective on that.
Dakota Valley is a great school to go to if you begin going there at a young age. If you transfer there when you are a teenager, this can make it a lot more difficult to make friends. Since it is considered a rather small school and most of the students come from higher-classed families, this results in the students being very cliquey. I didn't have as many opportunities as I feel I would have if I had gone to a larger school, but I got a good education and liked my classes for the most part. This was just my personal experience. I know others that have had much different experiences here.
I have had a wonderful experience at Dakota Valley High School. I have met many great friends, teachers, coaches and staff who have made the high school experience fun. The thing I would rate the best, other than friends, is the experienced and likable teachers and coaches. I have had so many teachers that I look up to and have helped shape my life. Our football coaches really made a difference in my life as well and their focus on team building, unity, kindness, and our character helped us to achieve a championship last year.
