SADD's mission: To provide students with the best prevention tools possible to deal with the issues of underage drinking, other drug use, impaired driving and other destructive decisions.
SADD is a peer-to-peer education, prevention, and activism organization dedicated to preventing destructive decisions, particularly underage drinking, other drug use, risky and impaired driving, teen violence, and teen suicide.
SADD is an inclusive, not an exclusive, organization. SADD recognizes that the pressures on young people to drink, use illicit drugs and engage in other unhealthy behaviors are strong. SADD seeks not to punish or alienate those students who make unfortuante choices but rather aims to inform educate, support and empower young people to make positive decisions in their lives.
If you are interested in being a part of SADD's new Dacula Chapter please stop by the Counseling office and pick up a registration form and return it before May 8th to Ms. Jaffe.

D.O.T. is designed to replace the current tardy policy at Dacula High School. The ultimate goal is to get students to class on time and maximize instruction while streamlining the tardy policy in order to help teachers in the classroom. D.O.T. is a teacher driven idea that was formulated through studying other tardy policies throughout Gwinnett County. D.O.T. is a teacher driven/administration supported policy designed to show students the importance of attending class on time.
Procedure
Students have 3 total tardies before receiving consequences. (Please see D.O.T. Referral Form)
Students have 7 minutes between class changes and 6 minutes between lunches.
When the last bell sounds, teachers will shut their doors. Students will not be admitted into classrooms unless they have an Administrator or D.O.T. pass.
Students still in the hall after the bell will report to the D.O.T. table in the front lobby to receive a tardy pass. Once they receive their pass, they are to report to class.
