Decatur City Schools
Ruth and Frank's two boys have been very happy in Decatur City Schools having attended Winnona Park Elementary, Renfroe Middle School and now Decatur High School. "We've always been very involved," Ruth comments, "and we're consistently impressed with the curriculum, teachers and staff."
