Jack Kroll is a student here at DS, but he’s also an athletic machine and has been since he was a little one. Watching videos or seeing stills from his accomplishments aren’t just awe inspiring, but will leave you wondering, “how on Earth did he just do that?” He has done more by the 9th …

Our field is named the Wheaton-Wells field. Our gym is named the Tom Febrey Gym. Our half-circle is named “Follert’s Way”. These names were picked by our own parents. These dedications were secured by families who love and want to honor our past, and present, educators. What’s in a name? Everything. Every day, we are …
The Lady Thunderchickens played a hard game last Friday evening against the Loudonville Christian Eagles. We quickly scored 4 goals in the first half which daunted the Eagles, but they fought hard to come back with 3 goals early in the second half. In the end, we were able to hold out for a 6-3 …
