DHS Assistant Principal Mr. Tate is this week's spirit stick award winner. Mr. Tate is not one for recognition, but he has worked tirelessly for the past several weeks getting our students started in the Progress Learning ACT prep program as well as organizing our W.I.N. days this week to help students get caught up in classes they need extra support in. Thank you Mr. Tate!
