Alma Mater - What you may not know!
Dorman is probably unique among public high schools in this country in
having both an Alma Mater and a fight song written especially for it,
rather than being "adopted" from a familiar tune. Earl Mays, a gifted
composer and retired Army band director, was the first band director at
the new Dorman High School in 1964, and he composed both of these fine
and stirring pieces. He did this without any thought of recognition or
gain, but just as a matter of course of his job. (How many other high
school band directors would have even thought of, much less have been
capable of, such a task?) This gave some instant tradition to a new
high school, which has now become genuine tradition for over forty
years, thanks to his talent.

Congratulations To Flynn Harrell and Paula Kirkland
From the Office of Ken Kiser
Principal Dorman High School
Dear Cavalier Family,
We have over 1100 students that participate in athletics at Dorman High School on our 44 high school teams, and another 700 participants in our 30 middle school programs. We have also added developmental leagues that we offer younger students in our district. In addition to that, we have added partnerships with little league programs to allow them to use our facilities and practice fields. These programs offer our students the opportunity to participate in first class programs with first class coaches and facilities. It takes a very special person to direct all of these school and district programs at this first class level. Flynn Harrell and Paula Kirkland do an outstanding job of making sure all of our programs provide the best opportunities for our students and we would like to thank them for their service. Congratulations to Flynn Harrell for being selected as the Region II AAAA Athletic Director of the Year! Coach Harrell received his award at the annual SCHSL Conference yesterday. Please join me in congratulating and thanking Flynn and Paula for all they do for Dorman and District 6 students.
Today was "Natianal Signing Day" and Dorman athletes signed to play for Universities and Colleges from New York, Kings College to Furman.

New Dorman Coaches
Dorman High Welcomes New Coaches
The Dorman High School Athletic Department welcomes eleven new coaches to the Cavalier staff for the 2012-13 school year. Several of the new coaches have actually coached previously in District Six or are graduates of DHS. Dorman Athletic Director Flynn Harrell says that the new coaches this year are “top notch. I believe that they will help their respective teams reach new heights going forward. They all bring tremendous experience with them from their playing days and from previous coaching opportunities. Many of them have already been working with our athletes during the summer training sessions and I can see that they will be welcome additions to our Dorman coaching staff.”
The Cavalier football staff had three new coaches added during the offseason. Kevin Farmer is now coaching the running backs. Coach Farmer comes to Dorman after serving as the head coach at Chapman High School where he led the Panthers to a Class AA state runner-up finish in 2007 and guided them to a move into Class AAA during his tenure in Inman. Coach Farmer also previously served as an assistant at Union High School where he coached with current Dorman assistant head coach Tommy Bobo. Craig Cash joins the Cavalier football staff as the defensive backs coach. Coach Cash is no stranger to the area as he is a graduate of Woodruff High School and has served previously as an assistant coach at Northwestern, Boiling Springs and Chapman. Ryan Kineard comes to Dorman this year as a defensive line coach and the strength coach at the Dorman Freshman Campus. Coach Kineard is a graduate of Furman University where he played football and he has eight years of coaching experience including a two year stint as a graduate assistant coach at Clemson.
There are three other fall sports additions to the Dorman staff all of whom have previous ties with the Cavaliers. Amy Bailey returns to the area as an assistant swim coach. Coach Bailey previously served as the coach of the Cavalier swimmers until leaving the upstate in 2008. During her earlier time at Dorman, Coach Bailey helped to build the Cavalier swim program into one of the most successful in the state. Dorman graduate Stephanie Chastain returns to District Six to coach the junior varsity volleyball team this fall. Coach Chastain was a three sport athlete at Dorman and went on to play collegiately at USC Upstate. Ashleigh Wines is also a Dorman and USC Upstate grad who was a member of the cheer teams at both schools. Coach Wines will take over the duties as the Friday night football cheer coach this season.
This winter, there will be two new additions to the Dorman boys’ basketball coaching staff. Rod Sadler assumes the role as a varsity assistant coach. Coach Sadler is a Boiling Springs and South Carolina State graduate and he was on the basketball staff at Byrnes High School for the last seven years. Caleb Gaither joins the basketball staff as the ninth grade head coach. Coach Gaither was a three sport athlete at Lancaster High School and a graduate of Winthrop University. He has coached previously at Lander University and South Pointe High School.
Three new coaches join the spring sports staff this year including two new track assistant coaches. Matt Henderson ran track and cross country at both Dorman and USC Upstate and is excited to return to DHS to help with both programs. Matt is an avid runner who ran in the Boston Marathon in 2007. Jeff Johns joins the Dorman staff after serving as the head track coach for six years at Pendleton High School. Coach Johns was a two sport athlete at Pendleton High and a graduate of USC Upstate. Brian Barrett joins the boys lacrosse staff this spring as an assistant coach. Coach Barrett was a football and lacrosse player at his high school in Islip Terrace, New York. He has been involved in the game of lacrosse for over twenty years as a player and coach, most recently serving as an assistant coach at Belmont Abbey College.
