Chamber Welcomes New Teachers to Decatur City Schools

On July 25, the Chamber celebrated the educators who are set to shape the next generation of leaders by joining the Decatur City School System. We welcomed approximately 100 new teachers to the school system with a breakfast at First Baptist Church to kick off the upcoming school year.

Principals from across Decatur City Schools introduced new members of their teams, each in their own unique way. Superintendent Dr. Michael Douglas shared his thoughts on the upcoming year. The Chamber wished the staff, administrators and teachers a successful year ahead. The first day of class for Decatur City Schools was on August 7.

Thank you to our presenting sponsor Nucor Steel Decatur and gold sponsors the Alabama Education Association and the Cook Museum of Natural Science.
