Dobie High mourns the passing of Marie Flickinger, a fierce champion for the South Belt community.
Today, Dobie High School mourns the loss of a pivotal figure in our community, Marie Flickinger. She was the co-founder of the South Belt-Ellington Leader, a weekly newspaper dedicated to covering local news, including Little League baseball, soccer, and football. Many Dobie High School students were recognized in this publication.
More importantly, Mrs. Flickinger was a staunch advocate for the underdog and for the South Belt community. She actively supported numerous initiatives at Dobie High School and served as a powerful voice whenever the school faced challenges. Her dedication extended to several principals from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and the present. However, perhaps her most significant contribution was ensuring that the South Belt community recognized the achievements of all of Dobie’s feeder schools and highlighted the accomplishments of Dobie High School students in her stories.
