On Tuesday, August 25, National Honors Society members for the 2026-2027 school year spent an hour under the sun to help revamp our DHS logo across from our Football field. To get us ready for our first game, NHS members pulled weeds, applied a fresh coat of paint to the letters, and put down fresh mulch to help the DHS logo look as good as new. Members who were able to help out include Seniors Kyleigh Black and Cooper Watchel, as well as Juniors Syra Servas, Shaylee Phillips, Laci Burnett, Brinkley Frakes, Kale Cassity, Lilly Wagner, and Alivia Hall. Friday nights will look even better after all of their hard work.
