Davie County Schools appoints Emily Moore as principal of South Davie Middle School

The Davie County Schools Board of Education meeting held on July 8, 2025, focused on several key agenda items, including personnel changes and commendations for staff efforts in closing out the fiscal year.

The meeting commenced with a review of the consent agenda, which included the annual travel contract. Board members were reminded to review an addendum to the personnel list before voting. A motion to approve the consent agenda was made by Michael and seconded by Joe, resulting in a unanimous vote of 6-0 in favor.

Following the approval, Chairman Potts announced the appointment of Emily Moore as the new principal of South Davie Middle School.

The board expressed excitement for her new role and offered their support.

The meeting then transitioned to committee and staff reports, with Dr. Blattner providing updates on significant changes planned for the upcoming school year. Further details on these changes were anticipated in subsequent discussions.

Overall, the meeting underscored the board's commitment to supporting educational leadership and recognizing the hard work of staff members, particularly in financial management and personnel development.
