There's a lot of bad things said about DO but we never had any issues. The math teacher Mr. McClure was phenomenal. It was my Sons worst subject and by the end of the year it was his best. He really enjoyed this school and although he transferred to a magnet school he misses it here.

Complaint on staff that just stands there with his paper in hand && not intervene when a student is assaulting another student!!
This situation of bullying is an ongoing situation && nothing seems to be resolving within the school principals, counselor, security, etc
I'm a very concerned parent of a child that is being continued to being bully on your school campus
With no follow ups or return of phone call/emails
Investigations && follow ups are important && for days to pass with no communication is very disturbing
My daughter has been attacked from behind 3 times in less than 2 months of school being in session && it seems the staff at Dessert Oasis HS has no control over their students
Signing a no contact contract obviously means nothing to these kids && policies need to be taken differently
It is ridiculous on how you talk to different principals && staff of the HS && they all have different ways of trying to solve or say to this situation
I don't understand why?
When a parent is dropping their child off to school for education && is getting texts && calls from their child that she wants to be picked up because she is being attacked, I feel the school apparently is unsafe && not doing their duty to have children in their hands
What do you have to say?
Bullying is very serious && it seems your school thinks otherwise!!
To feel the need to have to pull my daughter from your school is unfair
She may not be a 4.0 student but she's been attending her classes && tries to be in class doing her studies
To have to worry about passing periods && break times not knowing if she's going to be assaulted from behind is just sad
YOU SHOULD HAVE ALL THE STATEMENTS && REPORTS && PREVIOUS EMAILS SENT BACK && FOURTH BETWEEN MYSELF && PRINCIPALS, COUNSELOR, STAFF ETC THAT I'VE COMMUNICATED WITH
MOVING FORWARD IS WHAT WE HAVE BEEN DOING BUT WHEN IS ENOUGH, ENOUGH!!
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY A MEETING CAN'T BE CALLED WITH THE PARENTS
KIDS WILL BE KIDS BUT WHEN YOU ALLOW YOUR KID TO BE AN ASSHOLE && BULLY IS A DIFFERENT STORY
PARENTS OF STUDENTS INVOLVED SHOULD BE INVOLVED OTHER THAN THE SCHOOL STAFF
BEING YOU GUYS OBVIOUSLY ARENT DOING ANYTHINGHelpful 4Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 1 - Johnny A.Summerlin, Las Vegas, NV021May 2, 2023

The is place is a mess. CCSD product at its finest. 0/5 stars recommend. Do your kid a favor find a charter school or private school. They do a count day in the district and fired my kids science teacher because there supposedly wasn't funds for him. They moved all the kids to another class so that teacher had close to 50 kids. No teaching happening. It's crowd control.

I graduated at this high school and had a great experience met so many wonderful people and had awesome teachers! Mr. Rettagliata was the most helpful teacher, there are others, but he was the most notable. Thank u for preparing me for the real world

Apparently, this school does not find bullying a serious issue! I had to hear from my child that she was being bullied by a male student and I did not get a call from the school because she told me that they were going to call her into the deans office. I had to call the deans office myself regarding the issue. I left voicemails and called many times. I did not get a call back. My child told me that her and the bully had to sign a contract saying that they were not to get in contact with each other. Is that all the school is gonna do? I called again and spoke with the deans secretary and requested a meeting with the fellow student and his parents and was told they would not do because it would cause more drama!
What do you think about this? This boy should not get away with bullying. He's gonna end up bullying others like he has been (so I've been told)
I feel this school only takes serious precautions when it comes to dress code policies. It is important but what about those being bullied which is a serious matter.Helpful 15Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Lizmary P.Las Vegas, NV587153Aug 8, 2021
It's a great school. Have three children that attend and will be graduating this Spring with no issues.

This is a great, new high school in the southwest serving Mountains Edge and surrounding areas. The campus itself is beautiful - the architecture is unique and it does not look like the other "standard brick" high schools elsewhere in Las Vegas. Faculty is top notch, and the athletics are incredible!

hi im a student that's attending D.O im a freshmen here. the school isn't the best in my opinion. during my p.e class we are supposed to wear shorts and a short sleeve t-shirt. in the warm months i was fine with it. during December-February (current) we are still supposed to wear shorts and t-shirt while being outside. it's around 35-50 ish degrees and the schools pe teachers are still having us wear shorts and a t-shirt. and, when we don't because it's literally freezing outside where it gets us literally shivering and shaking, the teachers take off points from your grade. this is absurd. im literally failing p.e just because im refusing to wear shorts and a t-shirt in 35-50 degree weather where it snows on some days. i had a perfect grade during the warmer months because I wore the clothes. me and a lot of my friends are losing points and our grades are dropping over the most dumbest reason. my own mother disagrees with this schools behavior on this. also there's fights like every week that myself im worried to go to school. some of the teachers are so rude too. bullying is way too much here too. bathrooms are so nasty I can't even go in there. floors are really gross. have seen a lot of bugs around. so many nasty threats to the school. hope the school can do better.and care for their students at least a little.
