DASH is a great school with a wonderful environment. It's thorough artistic curriculum provides young artist the resources they need in order to thrive and develop their creativity. The combination of the program's artistic focus and strong academics does an excellent job at preparing students for college; DASH graduates tend to excel after graduation with their developed sense of independence. The faculty is extremely supportive and well seasoned in their designated areas of teaching. The tight-knit relationship and involvement with their students truly makes DASH a tight knit family.
While the school offers many opportunities, I think a more organized system for acknowledging the mental health and well-being of the students would be beneficial. Many students tend to feel overworked due to the schools demanding curriculum; I think increased communication between the students and faculty as well as implementing a sort of organized structure would enhance the DASH experience.

I love the school and so many opportunities for me came from here like getting a full ride scholarship to a precollege in NYC, winning awards, and finding design based competitions! I chose to go into fashion and DASH's curriculum really helped shape my future and give me a great head start! The location is great too it's right in the design district. I will forever be thankful for my education from DASH!
Design and Architecture Senior high school excels in promoting a diverse and creative environment. The teachers are excellent at fostering curiosity among students. DASH is an art magnet high school that provides tracks in Fashion Design, Industrial Design, Film, Graphic Design and Architecture alongside with an intense visual arts education. The teachers all have experience in these industries which helps their students prepare for future careers in these fields. However, no after school activities are permitted, often leading to rushed club meetings or activities during school hours. While DASH does not offer sports it has many other school wide events to promote school spirit and culture such as talent shows and halloween parties.
