Parent of a junior student who is thriving in this school! The 2 week academics alternating with 2 weeks of shop time has been a better learning schedule for her. Her shop is Graphic Communications and she is able to employ her love of art and color with this shop. Learning great job skills.

Diman is honestly such an amazing school, all the staff wants is for you to succeed and they make that apparent. They do all they can to make sure your getting all the education you need and deserve. I'm personally in the Dental Assisting shop and I am proud to say so, as well as all the other people in every shop. All the school faculties want is the best for their students. The teacher are also so dedicated to their job. I must also point out that the students are all easy going and nice to everyone, I have never seen "bullying" hard core in my 2 years their, great school and I definitely recommend it.

I must say, i do not enjoy my time at Diman. The thing is that, the rules make it seem like you did something wrong, like every day you somehow do something wrong and they make rules like they make candy. The administration, is very strict and don't even bother asking them a question, because they will make you repeat until they think it's "correct", don't really expect any fun here, it's all work and no play, and will make you a dull boy (or girl) the students here, are not accepting, if you are accepted, than you are a lucky one, because if you don't really do what the "big crowd" does than you are an outcast. A lot of people here seem to ignore anyone that is not their friend and will never talk to them. And just about everybody (and I mean EVERYBODY) here talks bad about people. There's a bully rule but who really follows it? And the teachers is like a mixed bag, you can get some great teacher that are cool and know what they are doing or you can get teachers that don't know how to teach and are very unforgiving. To sum it all up, this school has a lot of problems, and they love to make it worse for you, I hate to say the bad news but, you aren't gonna have any enjoyment here.
