On Friday, Dooly County High School celebrated its First Quarter PBIS Rewards Recognition Celebration! Students who earned enough points by consistently demonstrating the 3 B’s — Be Responsible, Be Respectful, and Be Safe — were rewarded with a day of fun and recognition.
Students enjoyed a variety of activities, including a 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament, soccer games, and a Gaming Room featuring X-Box, Atari, and PlayStation consoles. Others spent time at game tables playing UNO, Spades, Dominoes, and Checkers, or simply hanging out and socializing with friends while enjoying great music from the DJ, Wing Stop wings, and Little Caesars Pizza concessions.
The purpose of PBIS Rewards is to reinforce and encourage positive behaviors among students, helping to create a positive and predictable school environment. Recognizing students for meeting behavioral expectations not only decreases negative behaviors but also promotes a culture of respect, responsibility, and academic excellence.
Through PBIS, Dooly County High continues to build strong relationships between students and staff, while celebrating the importance of positive behavior and school pride. 🐾

Dooly County School Athletics Weekly Schedule
Dooly County Narrowly Falls to Treutlen in Hard-Fought Battle
Dooly County made up a huge gap compared to their previous matchup with Treutlen but still came up just short on Friday night. The Bobcats fell to the Vikings by a close score of 15-13 in a game that went down to the wire.
The Bobcats turned in one of their best performances of the season against a Treutlen squad that currently sits atop the region standings. The contest remained tight throughout, and Dooly County had a chance to tie and send the game into overtime, but their two-point conversion attempt came up just short.
Quarterback Jaiden Sanders, making his first start of the season, led the way for the Bobcats. He threw for 82 yards and one touchdown, while also pacing the team on the ground with 42 rushing yards. Braxton Gaston made a big impact as well, catching a touchdown pass and returning a blocked punt for another score. On defense, Seven Sutton and Jayquan Burke anchored the effort with seven tackles each.
The loss drops Dooly County to 1-6 on the season, but the team showed significant progress and fight in this matchup.
Next up, the Bobcats return home for Senior Night as they host Telfair County at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Trojans’ defense has struggled this season—allowing an average of 25.7 points per game—so fans could be in for an exciting offensive showcase from the Bobcats under the home lights.
