Dutchtown High School - Proof that Good Education Does Exist in Louisiana

Hello Griffin Parents,

I am happy to share with our community that Dutchtown High has once again been recognized as a Top High School in the United States by U.S. News and World Report!

DTHS was ranked as the #1 High School in Ascension Parish and the #11 High School in the state of Louisiana.  The ten Louisiana schools ranked higher than the Griffins all have some type of selective admissions process (such as magnet schools), meaning DTHS is the #1 open enrollment school in the state.   We were also ranked in the top 7% of High Schools nationally!

We know this success is due to the hard work of everyone involved at Dutchtown High.  Congratulations to our students for their strong work ethic, perseverance, and for achieving at high levels.  A HUGE THANKS goes out to our teachers, staff, and administrators for their dedication to EVERY GRIFFIN.  Thank you to all parents/guardians who make education a priority in the lives of your children.  It is our strong partnership that creates opportunities for students to pursue the postsecondary dreams of their choice. 

We consider it a privilege to serve this wonderful community!

Thanks,

Dr. Matthew Monceaux
