Hall of Fame Awards
The Dunwoody High School Hall of Fame was reestablished in 2006 to celebrate the school’s proud academic and athletic heritage. We are proud to continue this tradition by recognizing and preserving that legacy. The Hall of Fame honors coaches, counselors, and teachers, and bestows awards named in honor of two of Dunwoody’s most beloved leaders—principal Dr. Jenny Springer and counselor Ms. Mary Frazier. The Hall of Fame Committee has also added a Lifetime Achievement Award to recognize exceptional, long-standing contributions to the Dunwoody community.
The DHS Hall of Fame Inductee Class is selected every other calendar year.
