Principal's Message
The 2025-2026 school year will be my eleventh here at Downsville Community Charter School. I truly enjoy the wonderful children that we have in this community. The last 10 years at Downsville have seen a lot of changes and growth. In the past 10 years over $10.5 million has been invested in upgrading the facilities enjoyed by your children. Classroom renovations, a new AG Science building, new softball and baseball facilities, and we are currenlty completing a new cafeteria and gymnasium.
Academically, Downsville has seen tremendous growth since the DCCS Board has taken the reins of the school in November 2015. Downsville has obtained a "B" rating 8 of the past 10 years and also has been labeled a Top Gains school many of those years. We have also implemented Advanced Placement classes in the high school along with offering a Freshman year for free program. This program allows qualifying students to earn enough college credits before graduating that they will have completed their freshman year of college upon graduating high school. For those students who look to enter the workforce in a trade, DCCS allows all interested students, who qualify, to attend Delta Community College tuition free to earn certification in various trades.
Downsville has been improving at a blinding pace for the past 10 years. I do not anticipate that to change anytime in the near future. Our mission is to graduate students who are ready to go to college, or work, and for them to be successful in which ever direction they choose. There is little I like better as a principal than to talk to the graduates of the past three years when they return to visit, and have them tell me that they are being successful where ever they may be.
GO DEMONS!!
