In spite of concerns over space issues, one thing that parents need to be keanly aware of is that Dunwoody High School is full of dedicated teachers, coaches and staff that are looking to educate and enrich the lives of the children we entrust in their care. Besides the formal classes being offered, there is also a bond among the students via the special classes/clubs, activities, and service organizations within the school. Parents please encourage your students to participate fully in all that Dunwoody HS has to offer.
One of the special activities at DHS happens on Friday mornings at 7 am in the auditorium where the Fellowship of Christian Athletes invites all students to grab a quick sandwich, listen to music being offered by students and then an inspirational youth pastor from one of the many churches in the area gives a short talk.
Mr. Steven Fortenberry, a long-time (passionate & inspirational) teacher at Dunwoody High School has been organizing this function for many years, and it is events like this that fosters an attitude of caring and acceptance among all the students. With FCA fostering a sense of community, the students are nicer to one another, and when that happens, almost anything is possible.
On Sunday, August 25th, there is a short fundraising dinner for any Dunwoody High School parents who like to support this worthwhile activity. FCA also puts on a number of special events throughout the year including several post-football game social events and other activities for the entire school to attend.
My wife Kristin & I plan to be in attendance, and hopefully, we may see some of you there as well. Thanks.
