The Daves Avenue H&SC is proud to sponsor several ongoing programs that benefit students and parents alike. Please read below for a description of what may typically be offered during the school year.

• ​CASA - a group of community volunteers that encourage students to live a drug and alcohol-free lifestyle.
• Champions of Math - an extracurricular club of 4th and 5th graders who are very interested and motivated to learn more about mathematics. Run by parent volunteers.
