Central Dekalb University
Central Dekalb refers to itself as “The
University of Central Dekalb”, or more affectionately known
as “The U”. The word university is derived from the
Latin word “universus”. Universus simply means “combined
in one”. That, describes Central Dekalb. We are over 20
football teams, a dozen cheer teams, over 800 kids, over 1600
parents, all “combined in one”.
More affectionately we have been called “The U”. The
“U” stands for unity. It is a source of pride and
a rallying point for all of those kids it represents. It reminds
us all that whether we are a kids playing 4 year old flag football,
a 14 year old playing his last season at Central Dekalb, a first
year head coach or the most seasoned head coach in the park, we
are all “combined in one”, a unified family. We are
“The U”
