I have my home on the market, according to my realtor the biggest issue with Dover is the impression that we have a less than desireable school system. What's the real deal with our schools? Where do we stand with scores and graduating rates? I would love to know so I can forward it to my realtor. We have three generations of DHS Grads in our household and are all doing well for ourselves.
