Covid wrecked so many of our plans this year including the AISA state cheer competition at Garrett Coliseum. Thankfully, we were given the opportunity to compete virtually and after battling illnesses, quarantines, and volleyball playoffs, we got our routines together at the very last minute and were just notified that we are runner-up State Champions, and all 3 of our senior girls made AISA ALL STAR: Betsy Bennett, Mary Jensen Bailey and Brooke Mitchell. We could not be more proud of these girls.

117 Dothan High School students were recognized for their achievement in A+ College Ready supported AP (Advanced Placement) courses and their passing scores on their exams, earning them possible college credit.

The AP program at DHS offers college-level courses in Language Arts, Literature, US History, Statistics, Calculus, Government/Econ, Chemistry, Biology, Environmental Sciences, and Physics.

Students who pass the AP exams with scores of 3, 4, or 5 can receive college credits for the courses.

A+ College Ready, a program of the A+ Education Partnership, delivered $100 gift cards to each student at DHS. A+ College Ready is a non-profit that works to boost the college readiness of Alabama students.

Congratulations to these students for all of their hard work and achievements.

Our first Robotics Team practice is in the books! We are excited about this new team, and it looks like we are going to have a great year! Team members assembled our new and improved game board that is bigger than last year’s board by several feet!

Members of the Daleville Department of Public Safety went and spent time with the students in Pre-K through 4th grade at Windham Elementary on October 30. Chief Medley, Assistant Fire Chief Grubbs, and SRO Kiley spoke to the students about fire safety and how to call 911 in the event of an emergency. All important things to be informed about! We sure are glad we got to spend the morning with these kids!

Chief Medley said to remind everyone to smile because it’s free!

Highlands Elementary had a schoolwide election on Tuesday, November 4t.  Student Government Association representatives and upper grade classmates helped the younger students with the process. Voting booths were set up with iPads for the students to choose their nominee. Teachers did mini lessons prior to the election to teach the students about voting and voting etiquette. Students received an “I Voted” sticker after completing their ballot. (Pictured: SGA representatives for the 2020-2021 school year)

Check out this great project tribute to Veterans from the 3rd Grade LinC class at Highlands Elementary School Dothan!

This was a collaborative project where each student colored a piece of the agamograph according to a code, cut it out and finally glued them all together in columns and folded the pieces. Check out the art from different angles!

We had a fun-filled morning (10/23) revealing our Dothan City School Peanuts and their new names to the City of Dothan!
