Grandparents Association

Please check back to this webpage for updates or call the Development Office at 615-565-0219 or email Lori Trew at  ltrew@davidsonacademy.com if you have any thoughts or ideas you would like to share with us.  We would love to hear them!

We are so grateful to be able to honor you and your grandchildren in this way and we hope that this new connection is something we build on every year as we continue to lead and prepare our students for college, life and eternity.  Thank you for sharing your families with us!
Over the years we have seen the impact and influence that Davidson Academy grandparents have had in the lives of our students. As a way of honoring and serving YOU, we established the Davidson Academy Grandparents Association. We are so excited to foster greater connection and involvement with our grandparents.  It is our privilege to provide opportunities for you to further impact the lives of your precious grandchildren.
