INFORMATION REGARDING COVID-19
Hello J D Davis Families this is Principal Williams with a very important announcement.
In light of the Public Health Emergency declared by Governor Brian Kemp, MCSD has decided to proceed with an emergency closure. Please be informed that, to date, there have been no confirmed cases of COVID-19 in our schools and community. The closure is effective Monday, March 16-April 5, 2020. Please stay tuned to your local news and calls from the district office and school for updates.
We want to ensure that all JD Davis students maintain their current academic levels during our temporary school closure.
Therefore, all JD Davis students have received a Learning Packet that is to be completed at home, while the school is closed. The teacher has included specific directions, in the packet, to show your child which activities should be completed on each Day. All of the work in the Learning Packet has previously been taught at school. The Learning Packet does not contain new learning. If at any time you have questions or need assistance, you may reach out to your child’s teacher via Class Dojo or phone or you may contact Principal Williams directly at 706-587-4181.
Please return the completed package to your child’s teacher when school reopens. It is a JD Davis requirement that all student packages are completed as part of the instructional grading process for this quarter.
Together, we will work to make sure our students succeed.
Thank you for your support.
