Dear Parents and Students,

As I embark on my second year as the principal of William R. Davie Middle STEM Academy, I am filled with excitement and optimism for the journey ahead. Our collective mission continues to focus on creating a safe and inclusive environment where diversity is not just acknowledged but celebrated and respected.

At the core of our school's values is a commitment to fostering a positive culture built on kindness, empathy, and mutual respect. These are the pillars that will guide our interactions and shape the atmosphere in which we learn and grow together.

Academically, we will strive for excellence by offering a rigorous curriculum designed to challenge students, igniting their curiosity, and cultivate a lifelong love for learning. Our educators are empowered to employ innovative teaching strategies, integrating technology and real-world applications to enhance engagement and prepare students for the demands of the 21st century.

Equally important is our commitment to students' social and emotional well-being. We are dedicated to supporting the development of character, resilience, and interpersonal skills. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where all students feel valued, heard, and understood. We will collaborate closely with counselors, support staff, and community partners to provide the necessary resources and guidance for students’ holistic growth.

Transparency and accountability will remain at the forefront of our administrative practices. My door is always open, and I welcome feedback, ideas, and concerns from all members of our school community. Together, we will continuously evaluate our progress, celebrate our achievements, and address any challenges that arise, always with your best interests in mind.

I look forward to another year of growth, learning, and success at William R. Davie Middle STEM Academy.

Yours in education,

Dr. Anthony Tracey

Hello Viking families,

As I enter my third year here at W.R. Davie as the Assistant Principal, I am excited to be here and to work with the students, teachers, and parents, and especially our PTA and officers for another year. I feel comfortable in the fact that Mr. Tracey and myself work well together as a team and in the best interests of all students. I look forward to students gaining some extracurricular activity time built into our daily schedule this school year. I am also excited to try to incorporate a more solid and exciting PBIS program with tangible prizes and recognitions. I will also serve as the Bus Coordinator and the Testing Coordinator, and look forward to all going well. Finally, I look forward to getting our Jr. BETA Club up and running on a more positive and competitive agenda. 

Thank You to the School Board and Dr. Cunningham for the opportunity to serve Davie families for another year. Thank You to all parents and students for your support. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
