SDHS would like to thank Rina Dirickson and Max Stein for going above and beyond after the crowded basketball game last Thursday night. Unfortunately, there was A LOT of trash left in the stands after the game last. Rina and Max stayed after the game to help pick up the trash so it wouldn’t be so overwhelming for Mr. Otis. Thank you so much Rina and Max!!!! And, SDHS students….please, please show your Decatur spirit and help us out by throwing away your trash and not leaving it in the bleachers!!!
