I really appreciate the time and effort that my teachers and career services rep helped get me prepared for after graduating! Mr. Sexton, Mr. Goode, and Mr. Ivinson were great teachers for the Electrical Technician hands on classes. Ms. Leah R., my career rep helped a lot with sending out resumes for students and getting us opportunities to interview at potential companies!

My experience at Dorsey was absolutely amazing and exhilarating. Mrs Murphy, Miss Clark, Samona, Matt, and all of the faculty here are loving, caring, supportive, and REAL. I have never felt more secure about my future. I participated in the MT program and obtained my license. I couldn’t have done it without my sincere classmates and my teachers that turned into lifelong mentors. Thank you so much Dorsey.
