A school obsessed with grades, AP classes, honor classes, and majority Asian. Football team sucks and never wins, but god damn their badminton team and girls tennis team are on fire! You can walk down the hallway and hear 5 different conversations about classes, particularly AP and honor classes. If you haven't skipped a grade of math at DVHS, you sure as hell better be taking the honors of AP level of your "on level" math class to redeem yourself. Majority of the school is aiming to be a doctor or some kind of engineer. Majority of school hates being at Dougherty, and wishes for a less competitive school. Added bonus, your social status at school is determined by a simple decision: Grades vs Social Life, one puts you in the academic arena with no social life, the other puts you in the social hierarchy practiced by other schools where you will never be accepted as an equal in any AP or honor class by the other academic oriented kids.

A school that is only filled with ASIANs and INDIANs. Everyone teaches them selves and the schools teachers get credit. The (white) kids who don't choose to practice violin and have no social life and teach themselves what the teachers should be teaching, look stupid.
