As Prom approaches, Stephen Decatur High School wants to remind everyone to
“Drive safe and sober. Someone loves you and wants you home safe!”
We’d also like to express our deepest appreciation to Worcester Goes Purple, Patriot Auto Recycling, Coordinator of Instruction Tamara Mills, and our very own Students Against Destructive Decisions (#SADD) members for their role in setting up this meaningful display.

Our #BestAllAround student makes doing it all look easy! ⭐️
She is a straight-A student with 8 Advanced Placement and an additional handful of Dual Enrollment courses, a decorated scholar, a multi-sport athlete, a valuable member of multiple honor societies and clubs, and a community volunteer.
She also just happens to be our esteemed Senior Class President and our Homecoming Queen👑.
She wasn’t able to attend our Senior Awards Night on Monday because she was busy qualifying for the state tournament in track, so we are celebrating her here! 👏👏👏
Congratulations Lotus Wise!!!

We’re hooked on gratitude! 🎣
THANK YOU to the Marlin Club Crew of OC for reeling in support for our students with generous donations of fishing licenses & funds for gear. Thanks to them, our students are now ready to cast their lines, tackle new skills, catch some things in the currents, and make waves out on the water! 💦
Also, thank you to teachers Heather Wieland and Tom Hinkle for establishing such great community connections!
