Principal's Biweekly Message
Greetings Davis Families,
Collection Drive
Thank you for your donations. Our collection drive was a major success. We provided clothes, toys, and more for families in our own school community. One of the things that makes our Davis school community so special is the generosity and kindness that is shown.
Kudos to Mrs. Ward & Mr. Immerman, our guidance counselors, for organizing this amazing drive.
We still have plenty of clothes, toys, shoes, and more. Please see below if you would like to come in to shop.
American Education Week
We hope that you will join us for American Education Week. You should have already received communication from your child's teacher.

Family Trips Scheduled During the School Year
Dear Davis Families;
The Centennial School District Board of School Directors approved Policy 204.1, Family Trips Scheduled During School Year.
Although the scheduling of family trips during the instructional year is not encouraged, the Centennial School Board recognizes that students may benefit educationally by accompanying their parent(s)/guardian(s) on trips. The revision to the policy will allow the schools to approve up to five (5) days instead of three (3). Any trip beyond five (5) days will need the approval of the Superintendent.
Parent(s)/Guardian(s) who are requesting approval for a family trip need to complete and submit the attached form to the attendance office for approval at least two (2) weeks before the trip. The completed form may be submitted to daattendance@centennialsd.org.
Please do not email these forms to the principal.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding a family trip, please contact the main office.
