The CHALKBOARD<br />
Discovery Christian<br />
The Discovery Christian School Lions made a statement at their first ever state track and field meet held at Jackson Prep. Last year, two weeks before track and field<br />
season, the students were asked if they’d be interested in attending some track and field meets. DCS had never had a track and field team, nor did they have a track<br />
or field on which to practice. It was a challenge Bella Applewhite and her fellow students humbly accepted. The one and only practice took place at Hinds Community<br />
College in Raymond, two days before the first meet! Bella (9th grade) placed in five events at that varsity meet. Meet after meet, Bella and the DCS Lions continued to<br />
win! They qualified for district, south-state, then to everyone’s excitement, some, including Bella, qualified for STATE being held at Jackson Prep!<br />
