Davisburg Dateline

Thank you to all of the families that attended the Halloween Dance. We are so grateful for all the work that the PTC put in to make the dance a success. Events like these take a large number of volunteers and many donations. We appreciate your support!

Davisburg was buzzing with excitement on Halloween! Thank you to everyone that sent in supplies, materials, and treats, as well as those able to join in the fun. It is always a great time seeing our students dressed up and enjoying themselves.

Did your child tell you about the Springfield Township Fire Department visiting us this week? Did you review your family’s plan and meeting spot? This is a great time to talk about what the firefighters shared with our students. Being prepared is so important. I am grateful to have these wonderful men and women in our community helping to educate us and keep us safe.

Each day, I am energized by the smiling faces, hugs and high fives I receive from Davisburg students. What an amazing group of children! Thank you for providing me the honor to be part of your child’s education.

Truly,

Denise Kott
