Davis Elementary Principal
I'm so happy to
welcome you to the Davis Elementary web site and our Dolphin pride. Davis
is a very unique Plano school embracing our neighborhood students, students
from all over Collin county with hearing impairments in the Plano Regional
Day School for the Deaf, and a bilingual program serving students from
our own community and other surrounding Central Cluster schools.
Our exceptional
staff believes and practices the Davis mission and motto every day with
every child. We CAN- Challenge, Achieve and Nurture growth! We believe
each child can achieve success if we build on what a child knows and can
already do. We believe we can make a difference in building student confidence
by challenging each child to stretch to reach his potential and providing
a nurturing, positive environment to grow.
There's a spirit
at Davis that is hard to put into words - but our parents, staff and students
know it's real. I think it has to do with a genuine caring and embracing
of children just as they are — and a friendly, informality that invites
everyone to be a part of our inclusive school community. Welcome to our
Davis family! We anticipate an awesome, productive year ahead!
