News from the Nest of Lucy T. Davis

This is a reminder that interim reports will be sent home with students on Tuesday. Please take some time to review your child's progress. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact their teacher. Thank you for your continued support in your child's education.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks for your incredible support during our World's Finest Chocolate fundraiser. Your involvement and dedication have made a significant difference, helping our school achieve its goals.

Whether you helped your child sell chocolates, spread the word, or simply purchased some for yourself, your contribution is truly appreciated. Together, we’ve raised funds that will directly benefit our students and enhance their educational experience at LTD.

Thank you for being such an essential part of our school community. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Enjoy our 5K race as we wind through the beautiful neighborhoods of Florence. Get the entire family involved with our free Gobbler Kids' Dash! Participants are encouraged to dress in costume to be eligible for additional prizes! We would love to have a Lucy T. Davis group meet to do this together. If your family signs up, please email Coach Venable at wvenable@fsd1.org
