Hello Davis families!

Welcome to Week 14!

In observance of Veterans Day, there will be no school tomorrow on Monday, November 11th. We honor and express our deepest gratitude to all the veterans who have served our country. We encourage you to take a moment to reflect on the sacrifices made by these brave individuals and consider ways to share the importance of this day with your student.

Report cards for the first trimester of the school year will be sent home on Friday, November 15th. These reports provide a snapshot of your child's academic performance and progress thus far.

We encourage you to take this opportunity to discuss your student's strengths and areas for growth. Having a conversation about their performance can help set goals for the rest of the school year, whether it's maintaining current success or focusing on areas that may need improvement.

As always, please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to discuss your child’s progress further.

Thank you for your continued partnership in supporting your child's education!

Our Tiger Tenets :

Adults interested in volunteering in their student's classroom or chaperoning a field trip will need to complete the Volunteer Request Form and be fingerprinted. Please connect with your student's teacher to determine volunteer opportunities. We are currently seeking volunteers to support in supervision of students during lunch between 10:30 am - 1:00 pm. If you are available, please contact the office or scan the QR code.

Interested in working part-time with students at Davis? We currently have two vacancies at Davis: One (1 hour) School Playground and Cafeteria Monitor position and one (3 1/2 hour) Paraeducator - Special Education position. To learn about either position or to apply, go to Edjoin.org or click on the links below for more information.

School Playground and Cafeteria Monitor

Paraeducator - Special Education

Please remember that the front gate does not open until 7:40 am as there is no supervision for students prior to this time. It is important that students come to school dressed appropriately, including wearing school-appropriate shoes. If your student comes to school in Crocs or sandals, they will be asked to sit out PE and may not go in the barkbox or onto the fields during recess due to safety concerns.

Students who wish to eat breakfast in the cafeteria should arrive no later than 7:45 am. For students arriving by bus, please proceed immediately to the cafeteria. The cafeteria will be cleared out 15 minutes after the latest bus arrives to ensure that students do not miss instructional time.

Please remember that if your student has not yet been dismissed and you are in the loading zone, staff will be asking you to park or loop around to allow other parents to load their students who are waiting. We also ask that you model safe behaviors and use the crosswalk. Our Tigers know this is a Tiger Tenet and a way to be safe!

We thank you for your patience and for working with our staff to ensure dismissal occurs smoothly.

If your student will be out, be sure to call the office at 209-953-8301 to report your their absence. Students who have a medical or dental appointment will need to bring a note from their doctor upon their return.

Additionally, it is important your student arrives on time, ready to learn. School starts at 8:00 am and students are expected to be in their classes at this time.

Birthday treats must be store-bought. Please arrange with your student's teacher 1 or 2 days in advance of the birthday to have enough for the entire class. Treats will be distributed at recess, lunch, or dismissal depending upon class schedule and are limited to snacks. Please do not send sodas, pizzas, or similar items as they will not be delivered to your student's class.

Additionally, Davis Elementary does not accept deliveries of balloons, flowers, etc. for students. These deliveries are an interruption to our classes and learning environment. Please arrange to have deliveries made at home.
