(As a student of Derby High School, I can say that it totally blows. The administration never asks any student before they make descitions. Then theres the hall sweeps (which do more harm then good because if you want to get out of class, they excuse you). Then the lunch completely sucks. Even worse, you can't leave campus to get a better lunch. They say it will make us late, but then we would get hall swept right? lol. Then the whole thing with our seminar is way messed up. They renamed seminar to "Advisory Period". Then, in order to even leave the class, even to get a drink, we must have a stamped agenda book. WtF? Also, we MUST have our agenda book and ID card EVERY day in order to get points for that day.
Derby High is a member of the [[Kansas State High School Activities Association]] and offers a variety of sports programs.
