SDHS FCA Recognized for its Longevity
Over 30 years ago, a little known chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) began at Stephen Decatur High School, and it has not slowed down since.
This morning, the Lower Shore Fellowship of Christian Athletes recognized our chapter as the longest running chapter on the lower Eastern Shore at its annual breakfast.
Advisor Amy Fenzel-Mergott shared the history of the club and a few powerful stories that emerged along the way, including the story of former SDHS math teacher Larry Schott, founding advisor, who bravely battled ALS for over 20 years, and her own personal battle against cancer.
The SDHS FCA is a faith-based club that brings students together to grow spiritually, serve others, and strengthen their leadership both on and off the fields/courts. The group meets before school every other week—and weekly during the seasons of Advent and Lent—for devotions, fellowship, and reflection. Throughout the years, members have partnered with the Chesapeake Housing Mission building wheelchair ramps and the Salvation Army ringing the bell for the holidays.

What do our students do on days off?
Why they volunteer of course!
Government students, and additional volunteers, joined the Town of Ocean City - Government and the Surfrider Foundation - Ocean City Maryland Chapter to mark storm drains in the Montego Bay community with a very important environmental message- “No Dumping. Drains to Ocean.”
❤️🌊🌎
Painting the storm drains is one component of the town’s Green Team Adopt-A-Storm-Drain Program.
Stephen Decatur High School is a Maryland Green School 💚. In addition to this partnership, our students run robust recycling and composting programs, along with several other ‘green’ initiatives.
