The Davis community as a whole has always been very supportive of the schools. One of the reasons people choose to live in this community is that Davis is well know for the quality of education and importance of education in the community as a whole.
Earlier this year, the Davis Schools Foundation set a big goal to raise enough money to prevent the layoff of dozens of Davis teachers and to keep special programs like elementary science, music programs intact. The fundraising campaign was a success and also provided a good message to the school board as well as the community as a whole how important the schools are to this community.
The voters of Davis will have an opportunity in Novemeber to pass a special parcel tax that will help preserve these school programs for the future. In a state with continued budget troubles, it is likely that individual communities will continue to step it up at a local level.
