Additionally, if your child is enrolled in a WCPS school, you should be getting delay/closure robocalls. If you're not receiving them, contact your child's school.



Our hearts are heavy at this time as we mourn the loss of our dear friend and colleague, Mrs. Sara Thompson. Mrs. Thompson was a longtime Worcester County Public Schools MD Board of Education member, past President of the Board of Education, a standout member of the Town of Berlin Maryland, and a substitute teacher, member of the second graduating class, and one of the biggest cheerleaders at Stephen Decatur High School. Our sincerest condolences extend to her family and friends and all of #DecaturNation. We love you Miss Sara! #OnceASeahawkAlwaysASeahawk


Congratulations to our All-State Band and Chorus Honorees!

There were 6 state championships for football and, of course, we claimed one of them, but there was only 1 SPORTSMANSHIP award and WE WON THAT TOO!
Kudos to the student body, fans, families, faculty, administration, players, and coaches, all of whom played a role in this award. To our Decatur community, this one is for you! Thank you!
