A significant line of weather is scheduled to come through Okaloosa County early tomorrow morning bringing the potential of damaging winds up to 70 miles per hour. The possibility of tornadoes can not be ruled out. This weather system containing thunderstorms will pass through quickly according to Patrick Maddox, Director of Emergency Operations for Okaloosa County.
The timing of the weather has the potential to impact bus transportation tomorrow morning during the first tier of school bus transportation. High winds will exist and students may be waiting at bus stops in very inclement weather.
For that reason, Davidson will start at 8 AM tomorrow. All bus routes will run exactly one hour later. Drop off will start exactly one hour later. School will end at the normal time.
Go Panthers!
Spring sports are just around the corner. For your convenience, we've included all tryout information in one handy location. Keep in mind that students must have current athletic paperwork on file in the front office to participate in conditioning or tryouts. Conditioning dates are optional and do not affect tryout scores. Tryouts are mandatory. Also per MSAC rules, students participating in flag football or swim may also play one other sport if selected to both teams.
Davidson is looking forward to celebrating literacy during the week of January 23! Students will be sharing about their favorite book and reading throughout the week.
First semester report cards are now available in FOCUS. Please contact your student’s teacher if you have concerns about grades.
Martin Luther King, Jr. said, "Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education." We LOVE these wise words!
If you have an 8th grader going to CHS next year, this opportunity is available for your student.
