Posted: August 11, 2024

Students at this school tend to have a high number of absences and tardies. Many fights throughout the year. Students do not follow dress code despite the policy. Students roam around the park and shopping centers throughout the day. Administration has no control or authority. High teacher and principal turnover. Students with good grades are kicked out and the ones with excessive absences, missing credits and low grades get to stay. Office staff is not friendly. P-Tech program is unorganized and below district average.

I am currently a senior at North Dallas High school. I have been in this school since my freshman year and I love it there. The thing I love about this school is that the students don't have to worry about fitting in, because there are no specific "groups" of people, everyone gets along with each other. There are plenty of opportunities for the students, they are doing everything that is in their power to lead us in the path of success. Just because some students do not have education as their priority and do things that affect the school's reputation, does not mean North Dallas High School is a bad school.

I was looking for a condo unit around Uptown and saw this school in the realtor's page. The name sounds familiar so I search a little bit. Guess what, my grandfather graduated from North Dallas! My dad and his family turned out great. Thanks to my grandad's education from this school. I will definitely check it out one of these days.

I love this school! My daughter graduated two years ago and my youngest son is a senior this year. My children went to three different high schools in Dallas ISD and only in North Dallas we found stability. The principal is such a good hearted person and puts students interest above all else. The teachers are very caring and do their best to help my children succeed. This school has changed my impression about Dallas ISD. There are great employees in the district and they are lumped in one high school, in North Dallas. Thank you Bulldogs for caring so much for my children. My daughter now attends UT Austin with a scholarship.

As a resident who lives directly across the street from North Dallas High school, I can honestly say that this has to be the worst school in all of DISD. Everyday, I see kids roaming Cole Ave and hanging out at the park - during school hrs! What's worse is the graffiti they leave behind. I see nothing but 'hood-rats' and kids headed for trouble. Shame on DISD for not making this the best school in the district. After-all, it is in the best neighborhood in Dallas!
