Greetings,
We will have two meetings next month, the makeup from September will be held on October 2 and our regular scheduled meeting (3rd Thursday of the month) will be on October 16, 2014. The time and location will be same, 6:30pm in the Davis Library. Hope you will make both meetings.
If you have any questions, please contact Eddie Carranco, JDHAA President at edwardcarranco@att.net. Thanks.
Dear JDHAA Members,
With respect to the Accessories Fundraiser held in August 2014, please be informed that $500 was raised to be awarded as a scholarship for a qualifying student the next academic year.
We especially appreciate the following donors, some of whom are not members, yet helped make the fundraiser a HUGE SUCCESS by donating items, and most importantly their time.
Many thanks to Ernest Trevino, JDHAA member, for providing music at the event and taking photos which are now posted on the website. Also, thanks to Hugo Mojica, VP for Membership, for being available to register voters.
A special note of appreciation to Julissa Alcantar Martinez, Principal of Jeff Davis, and Rosa Giron, secretary, for providing the school as the venue for the fundraiser.
Again, many thanks to all of you.

Mighty Panthers,
It is that time again to reach out, encourage, and ensure that all our students return back to school this academic year to continue, complete their high school graduation requirements, and move on to college as we expect them to. Hence, we are appealing to you to mark your calendar and block out just two hours for us on Saturday, September 6, 2014 as a volunteer to conduct home visits with us.
Quite frankly, this home visit exercise will provide you firsthand experience as you navigate our zoned surroundings. It will further enlighten you to better understand the realities and potential difficulties our scholars face. Finally, it is a very encouraging and rewarding activity to engage in as we remain singularly focused to see all of our students do well.
I have attached the link for your registration. Please, do select Davis High School for all three options. As a school, we are required to have at least thirty staff members volunteer, show up, and participate in the walk. Breakfast will be served and water will be provided to quench your thirst as you drive and walk. Thank you in advance for volunteering. Our gratitude holds no bounds with you for all that you do diligently to support all students! Here is the link. As you register, click that you have participated before and no training is required. I will train you if needed.
