            Dunwoody is Disconnecting to Reconnect!

We truly have the most supportive and amazing community. Thank you to everyone who has donated to the cause and supported the “Disconnect to Reconnect” initiative, bringing learning back to the classroom. 

 

We presented almost 90 of our incredible teachers with their new cell phone boxes and pouches, and they were so excited and grateful.

                     Volleyball Update

The JV Lady Wildcats Volleyball Team ended their season on Tuesday at home against Tucker HS. They played well together and dominated all three sets. Players supported each other throughout the season and finished with a winning record of 13-9. Great season, ladies! 

 

                   

 

 

             Softball is on to the Playoffs!

With decisive region wins against Tri Cities (14-2) and Chamblee (14-6) this past week, the Lady Wildcats secured second place in the region and a home playoff game in the first round! Against Tri Cities, Dunwoody piled up 15 hits, with Brooke Parkes, Kristina Conn, Kaz McLoughlin, Anslie Worley, and Allie Sleep delivering 2 hits each (and with Kaz and Brooke both slamming homeruns). Anslie was also strong in the circle, ensuring the win while barely breaking a sweat.

 

Dunwoody secured its second win against Chamblee this season (and the second win since 2020). Vivian Curry and Brooke Parkes led the hitting parade, with 4 and 3 hits, respectively, while Alyssa Rosenkoff wowed them in the circle.

 

Come out to cheer on the team and SENIORS at SENIOR NIGHT this Monday. Festivities start at 5:00. Follow the action on Instagram.
