Foundation Provides Supplies for Teachers!
    County and state budgets were unable to allot a single penny to teachers for purchasing supplies.  The Foundation was able to
    fill that gap by providing nearly $2,000 to teachers for supplies during the summer of 2010.  We are glad to be able to help
    teachers meet the needs of our children.
    Landscaping
    Countless members of our community are benefiting from the newly renovated field.  Davis students, the Lassiter Junior
    Trojans Lacrosse team, and surrounding neighbors who use the field after school hours are all enjoying the Foundation-
    sponsored field renovation.  Money raised from last year's Boosterthon was used to repair and update our back field.  
    Private Landscape, Inc. did a fantastic job fixing our drainage issues, creating a field that will no longer hold water, and
    rendering it functional for our students.

    On September 28 and October 2 the Foundation sponsored a Volunteer Workday to improve our grounds.  Hundreds of
    barrels of mulch given by Cobb EMC were moved around the premises.  Many thanks to all who rearranged their schedules
    and donated their time to help.   Kevin Zschach, Capital Improvements Chairman, has been working diligently to give the
    Davis sign a cost effective facelift.     
New Goal Established for Davis!
Did you know our children are participating in PE on carpet that is decades old?  Many schools have installed new gym floors
during the past few years.  Now it's our turn to get a new Sport Court gym floor!  Sports Court flooring has been endorsed by
USTA, NCAA Volleyball, iHoops and many more organizations.  By participating in our fundraising events and making donations
to the Foundation, you can help build a COURT OF DREAMS!  For more information, visit Foundation's Sport Court Information
