Hello Davey Families!

We are also celebrating our staff members this week. Staff Appreciation Week is May 2nd-May6th. Please help me acknowledge the wonderful things our Davey staff accomplishes on a daily basis. Davey runs smoothly because of the hard work and dedication of its staff members.

The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called truth.

An Excellent Weekend!

Hello Davey Families-
It has truly been an amazing weekend. Yesterday was a blast at the Kindergarten Fair. We had many people donate their time to make certain the event was flawless. It was fun to meet all of our incoming kindergartners. They certainly seemed very excited for next school year. Today was a beautiful day outside. I am pretty sure we ended up some where in the 80′s. I hope every one was able to get outside and enjoy the weather.
A special congratulations to all of the children that have been participating in the after-school tutoring program. We will celebrate their successes this week on their final day of tutoring!

Spring is Here!

Hello Davey Families!
I hope everyone had an enjoyable Spring Break. Spring has officially arrived!
Just as a reminder – Students should not be wearing shorts to school at this time. Children are not permitted to wear shorts until the temperatures are consistently at the 70-degree range. Please remind your child to wear their coat to school as well. It is a bit too chilly to go without a coat for recess time.
Hopefully the sun is here to stay…
Can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow!
