Dumfries High School is a comprehensive school with a school roll of around 1000 pupils and students. It is situated in a residential area of Marchmount in Dumfries, Scotland, adjacent to the David Keswick Athletic Centre, which provides sporting facilities both for the school and the local community. However the more recent DGOne leisure complex has replaced this for many functions. Dumfries High School has been on this site since 1961, and has been expanded and improved since.
