Davey Elementary Military Families

Saluting Those Who Serve

Davey Elementary School wants to honor the students and family members of active duty military personnel and veterans. As a building, we understand that military youth go through unique circumstances and situations, and we want every military family to know we are here to help. Below you will find easy access links to helpful resources.
