Enrolling New Students

We welcome your family to Dohn Community High School.
 
Why Enroll in Dohn Community High School?
Here are a few reasons why you should consider DCHS:
  • We're a small school where students receive individual attention
  • Students who are behind in credit can recover that credit during the school day, after-school, or in our summer school.
  • Teachers are interested in the success of each of their students. Teachers have fewer than 100 students - so they have time to work with students on an individual basis.
  • Students who have not yet passed the Ohio Graduation Test receive addition help in their academic classes and in a special after-school study session devoted exclusively to the OGT.
  • Our summer school is a low cost option that allows students to either study for the OGT or make up credit. Last year, the cost for the four-week program was under $30.00.
  • DCHS is truely a school where a student can turn his or her life around
