Ryan Seacrest’s high school stadium gets $2.7 million update
The DeKalb County School Board has approved the project. Ryan Seacrest, who graduated from Dunwoody high school in 1993, reportedly made a donation of more than a million for his former school’s project.
For the unaware, Seacrest played defensive back for the Wildcats before his graduation in 1993. “For us, it’s about so much more than a field. It’s about creating a place where kids can dream big, chase those dreams and have the support of their families every step of the way,” he said in a statement to USA TODAY Sports.
The 51-year-old continued, “To be part of something that celebrates both the dreams and the people who help make them possible is what makes this moment so special.” Seacrest said he felt elated to give the team a home field.
“When I was a kid, my dad would leave work early to come watch my football practice on this very field,” he said. Seacrest shared these memories are a big reason behind him and his family investing in the project.
The principal of the school, Tom Bass, also opened up on the project. “There is something special about our community that you have to be a part of it to really understand how special Wildcat Pride is and what Dunwoody is all about,” he stated.
The stadium is expected to open for the 2027 football season. Head coach Matt Schmitz expressed excitement for the opportunities beyond the games. He mentioned “traditions you could start, songs, things the band will do, the hard hats, the student section.” Schmitz said, “When you have your own place, you can really make it unique and make it your own, so we have ideas like crazy of how we want to do this.”
