ACADEMICS
Dysart High School is an A+ School of Excellence that strives to prepare all students to be college and career ready through mastery of a rigorous curriculum and the guidance and support of all stakeholders. DHS students should be prepared for college, career, and life experiences through the academics, arts, and athletics opportunities offered.
With our Advanced Placement and Dual Enrollment programs, DHS is able to push students to meet the demands of college while attending a public high school. These programs, along with the Career and Technical Education programs offered, ensure all students are prepared for college and careers. Lastly, through the arts, students are able to explore artistic expression while earning credits toward graduation.
Dysart High School truly values the skills, passion, and perspective that art provides to our students. We offer visual arts (painting, drawing, and ceramics) and performing arts (band and theater). We now have six 2D arts classes, and have increased the number of Art Seal recipients, having at least one in each of our Arts programs.
