Rollercoaster Day at Decatur High
Decatur Metro | December 11, 2009
DHS teacher Chris Billingsley reports in…
The 9th grade students spent today in the gym building roller coasters. Physics teachers Ms. Debra LeDoux and Mr. David Schaar have developed a hands-on way to teach the laws of motion. While students were in the gym, they met former DHS student and current Georgia Tech basketball star Sam Shew. Sam has maintained a near 4.0 academic average while playing for the Yellow Jackets. Pictured with Sam is one of his favorite teachers, Ms. Ayoka Shakir. All the students had a great day. Thanks Ms. LeDoux and Mr. Schaar.

Ms. Shakir is awesome! And she’s a lot taller than she looks in this photo next to a GT basketball star!
And she’s an Agnes Scott grad!
And she’s from Mary Tyler Moore Land–Minneapolis! o/ o/ You’re going to make it after all! o/ o/ (Besides being Berkeley/Mayberry, I’ve always thought that Decatur is the Minneapolis of metro Atlanta).
