[quote=Anonymous]My kids are currently in DHMS.I really like the principal, school etc. My kid is a "one of a few school ambassador" whose role is to help new students like your daughter feel welcome and find her way around the place, have a "buddy" until they settle in. When some kids have no one to eat lunch with, the counselors will set up lunches with other kids who are asked to join, My other kid is part of one of these groups to help out a kid. The grades are also separated by floors so that the younger kids are away from the older kids - this does reduce bullying although I have no doubt in grade bullying still happens. Finally even though the school is large (DHMS is currently underenrolled) the teachers know the kids and keep track of grades etc. I got a call from one of the teachers when my kid's grade were slipping and we were able to get her back on track.
