It was named after Captain Dewayne Meece. He was the first air force captain to fly bombing missions in the civil war.
His family donated the land where the school is located so they named it after him.
You might recognize another institution named after him : Captain D's restaurant.
On a sad note Captain D was tragically killed while flying to Mexico. His plane hit the original wall that was built between our two countries knocking it down. Mexico said they would pay for the wall to be rebuilt but never did.
