Proud of the Dunbar High School math team for their strong showing today at the FGCU Invitational Mathematics Competition. Our students competed across multiple levels and brought home trophies, including Statistics Team Winners. Excellent representation of the hard work happening in our classrooms. Well done, Tigers. #Dunbar #STEM #FGCU #MathCompetition

Great to connect with Dr. Bryson from STEMCAT! Dunbar High School is partnering with STEMCAT on Pre-Apprenticeship and Apprenticeship programs in Advanced Manufacturing and Health Care. These pathways give our Tigers real skills, credentials, and direct routes into high-demand careers. Excited for what’s ahead! #DunbarTigers #STEMCAT #CTE #Apprenticeships #LeeCountySchools

Great evening at Dunbar for our School Advisory Council meeting and ESOL Parent Night. I was blessed to see an old friend, Mrs. Greta Campbell. She had a long and excellent career in Finance for the School District of Lee County, and it was great to catch up. Thank you to everyone who came out. Nights like this remind me how much stronger we are when school and community stay connected. #DunbarHigh #LeeCountySchools #TigerPride

What a night at the Trop. Rays 1, Yankees 0 in ALDS Game 1. Sold-out crowd of 40,542. Drew Rasmussen carried a no-hitter into the 8th with 10 strikeouts. Jonathan Aranda’s homer was the only run, and Bryan Baker closed it out. Great game with my family. #RaysUp #ALDS

Grateful for this administrator team. Homecoming does not happen without the people who stay late, work the radios, and take care of every detail so students can have the night. Great night for the Dunbar Tigers.

Homecoming Night belonged to the Tigers. Dunbar 52, Lehigh Senior 6. The Homecoming Court led the night, walking through the saber arch. JROTC held the line. The band set the tone. Then the football team put up 52. Proud of every student who showed up and represented Dunbar. Orange and green looked right under the lights. Go Tigers.
