The Clarkston boys brought home the first state trophy in 1940, and 41 other teams have since realized the big prize in the ensuing 76 years. From legendary coach Elmer Morrow ’s dominating boys teams at Druid Hills in the 1950s to the current boys powerhouses at Miller Grove and Columbia, the list of win- ners is an impressive one. Druid Hills knocked off Avondale (50 -44), Tifton (47 -44) and Jeff Davis (55 -42) in state finals in 1953, 1954 and 1957 respectively. Stone Mountain and Clarkston on the boys side, and Druid Hills and Stone Mountain among the girls served as the other early local powers. E.L. Rainey , another of DeKalb County’s original hoop coaching giants, led Stone Mountain to the Class B crown in 1957. Tom Church guided Clarkston to its second boys state championship with a victo- rious effort in the class B final in 1964. The girls matched the boys for the first time at Druid Hill in 1960, with Virginia Canady coaching that squad to the Class AAA title.

Thurmond CHARTER SYSTEM PETITION COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS Parents: The DeKalb County School District is seeking to become the largest charter system in the state of Georgia. In order to accomplish this goal, the district must submit a petition to the Georgia Department of Education seeking charter system status, and your input in this petition is sought. The district is seeking your thoughts on autonomy and flexibility at your school and how that autonomy and flexibility can lead to innovations in how students are taught and how the school is governed. Five community engagement sessions have been scheduled, and anyone seeking the opportunity to provide input is invited to attend, including parents, teachers, and other community members. You are also encouraged to review information from the Georgia Department of Education concerning charter systems, including some of the petitions from other school systems around the state that are already operating as a charter district. That information can be found at the following web address: http://www.gadoe.org/External- Affairs-and-Policy/Charter-Schools/Pages/default.aspx. The Community Engagement Sessions will occur at the following locations: Region IV Lithonia High School Tuesday, August 26 @ 6:00 PM Region II Lakeside High School Wednesday, August 27 @ 6:00 PM Region I Dunwoody High School Thursday, August 28 @ 6:00 PM Region V Towers High School Tuesday, September 2 @ 6:00 PM Region III Stephenson High School Wednesday, September 3 @ 6:00 PM We thank you in advance for your participation and look forward to seeing you soon!
