Project completed by Dale Partners as part of the former Dale|Bailey joint venture.
SUMMARY:
Originally constructed in 1948, Nora Davis Magnet school was an early equalizations school for African American students. Nora Davis was severely damaged by a fire in 2020, and our team had the privilege to provide services for the renovation and expansion project, which allowed Nora Davis Elementary to repoen its doors to students. The renovation and expansion project aimed to not only restore the damaged parts of the school but also to enhance the learning experience for the students. The new Nora Davis Magnet school now boasts state-of-the-art facilities and updated technology, providing students with a more conducive environment for learning. The expansion has also allowed for an increase in enrollment capacity, enabling more students to benefit from the excellent education offered at Nora Davis Magnet school.
