OUR MISSION:The Alfred & Adele Davis Academy, an

accredited Reform Jewish Day School, provides

an academically challenging environment

with enriched curricula, integrating general

academics and Judaic studies from Mechina:

Kindergarten Prep through Eighth Grade. In a

nurturing, secure environment, instructed by

a faculty dedicated to excellence, children are

encouraged to reach their highest potential.

The Davis Academy strives to create a

community in which children develop a

life-long love for learning and commitment

to Jewish life founded on morals, values, and

ethics, grounded in Torah.

Introducing the2016–2017Board of Trustees

F rom butterflies to bulldozers, change and hope are in the air at The Davis Academy as we celebrate the next stage of our amazing school! As these pages of our 2015-2016 Annual Donor Report reflect, the generosity of our

community continues to serve as the inspiration for our growth. The butterfly was a perfect symbol for this time of transformation that will further position our school as an outstanding educational institution for years to come. In celebration of the Next Stage, our students and faculty created a beautiful permanent butterfly art project for the Lower School lobby (see cover)—representing the beauty of change and the splendor that is created when many individuals come together to create and transform the entire kehillah.

Our Next Stage Capital Campaign was truly a centerpiece of Davis charitable giving this past year. We are grateful beyond measure to those who honored the vision and generosity of our founding families and are now ensuring state-of-the art facilities for our students for generations to come by contributing to this historic campaign. It’s been so exciting to witness this new phase of our school take shape, and we can’t wait to cut the ribbon in January 2017 for our new 600+ seat performing arts center, chapel, dining hall and kitchen, and adaptable learning spaces. It is going to be awesome!!

Beyond our capital campaign, it is a privilege to recognize each and every supporter in this donor report whose generosity enables The Davis Academy to soar to new heights. We express our deep appreciation to all those who contributed critical dollars to the annual Davis Fund, which not only helps to meet general operating expenses, including teacher salaries and professional development, but allows us to add important enhancements such as new learning tools and classroom furnishings that support student opportunities and foster creativity. We also thank our corporate partners who sponsored our Annual Golf Tournament and the many individuals who participated in the school’s special scholarship initiative as well as the Georgia State Tax Credit Program (through the ALEF Fund), each providing much needed tuition scholarship funds for our students. These funds are crucial and help sustain our school.

Finally, we extend tremendous appreciation for all who gave of their time this past year to make The Davis Academy a better place—whether by reading to children in a classroom, volunteering with our PTO, heading up a committee or making phone calls for the Davis Fund. I am especially grateful for the involvement and leadership of our 2015-2016 Board of Trustees, and in particular, outgoing Board President Debbie Kurzweil for her deep commitment and invaluable guidance. We are truly blessed to have people like Debbie, and our incoming President Jon

Leven, serve in leadership roles long after their own children graduated, to show appreciation for what the school has meant to them, and to help secure the school for future generations.

B’Shalom,

Amy Shafron Head of School

In 2015-2016, our community once again embraced the school’s philanthropic tradition by supporting the Davis Fund. Parents, grandparents, alumni, alumni parents, faculty and staff

and community donors gave more than $355,000 to our annual giving program to ensure that our students have the best experience possible- both in the classroom and beyond. These gifts enable us to invest in top tier faculty, support our thriving arts and athletics programs, provide our students with cutting edge technology and ultimately provide our students with the resources they need to achieve their full potential. We are grateful to all of our donors.

Now in our family’s fourth year at The Davis Academy, our children are inspired, challenged,

and amazed each and every day. They feel a sense of love and respect for others—not only their peers, but their teachers and advisors who are guiding them through these critical years of academic, social and spiritual growth. Davis empowers our children to be thinkers and leaders. Our family is proud to be a part of the warm Davis community, and we support The Davis Academy to ensure its future for the next generation of Jewish learners.

—Deb and Josh Perlstein, Parents

As a grandparent, I find The Davis Academy impressive in its ability to stay relevant and keep the curriculum current and interesting to students, including the use of so many types of tools. I am especially impressed with the school’s faculty and administration’s efforts to make the effort to know the goals and values of the individual student as well as understand the family’s goals for the student. My grandchildren are in an environment that strengthens their values, self-image and self-esteem – priceless!

WHY WE GIVE:

Lisa and Evan Toporek with children Mason (3rd grade) and Lia (6th grade).

There are many reasons why The Davis Academy means so much to our family. First and foremost

is the quality of the education and that, in addition to a challenging curriculum, our children are supported by highly capable and compassionate staff. We are also believers in the establishment of faith as a foundation, and for us, Davis integrates this in a powerful and balanced way. We are also thankful that all of this takes place in a secure environment with teachers we can truly trust with our children. Above all, we appreciate the connections we feel when we are with our fellow Davis friends and their families. We give our time and money to The Davis Academy, but it gives us so much in return.

WHY WE GIVE:

Alumni family Abby Bechler-Karsch and Rob Karsch with children Jacob (Class of 2013) and Emily (Class of 2010).

As we looked at schools when our daughter Emily was entering kindergarten 16 years ago,

The Davis Academy immediately stood out. The warmth of the staff and the administration, the rigor of the curriculum, and the happiness of our friends’ Davis students—all in the Jewish Day School environment—sold us. Two graduates later, The Davis Academy did not disappoint. Our children learned to ask questions in the classroom, became confident athletes on the sports field, and each cultivated their own understanding of Judaism. In addition to the lifelong friendships that our family gained through Davis, we are so grateful for the relationships that our family has maintained with the school’s faculty and staff.

We support The Davis Academy today because it continues to be an important part of our family’s story. As our children grow into young adults, we continue to witness the benefits of their Davis Academy education. They have a passion for both academics and volunteer work, values instilled throughout the years they spent at Davis. Our kids still even reach out to their Davis teachers for advice. Our family would not be the same without The Davis Academy.
