Students Assigned
The Davie County Board of
Education, at its regular
meeting on Monday, May 4,
1970, adjusted certain at
tendance areas and assigned
students for the 1970-71 school
year.
All students living in Davie
County in grades 9 - 12 are
assigned to Davie County High
School. All students in grades 1
- 8, with the exception of some
special education students, are
assigned to the elementary
school in the attendance area in
which they live .
The need to adjust attendance
area lines became necessary
because of the consolidation of
the Farmington and Smith
Grove Schools into the
Pinebrook Elementary School,
and the inclusion of grades 6, 7,
and 8 at William R. Davie
School. The Board of Education
has attempted to use natural
boundary lines wherever
possible, and to establish lines
so that a minimum number of
students will be affected.
