    From Dexter High School

    Dexter High School is consistently ranked as one of the top comprehensive public high schools in the state of Michigan. Alma mater to numerous National Merit Scholars, Dexter offers a challenging curriculum which affords many educational options to students including the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme starting with the class of 2014, numerous Advanced Placement courses, and technical education programs available through the county-wide consortium. Our music programs garner top honors year after year, and we hold multiple state championships in a myriad of sports. Top that off with state and national awards for our journalism, debate, forensics, robotics, Quiz Bowl, and Ocean Bowl clubs, and it's easy to understand our Dreadnaught pride!
