Since 1990, Davie County’s population has grown 52%. Based on this rate of growth, Davie County’s population may reach 53,084 people by the year 2037. We are working diligently to invest in the proper infrastructure to support these growth rates, but we cannot overlook the need for next-generation leaders. Davie County Government is investing in leadership development initiatives with staff through a partnership with Sage Garden Care Center. We would also like to commend the Chamber of Commerce on renewing the Leadership Davie Program.
Davie County is proud of our Economic Development Commission for their workforce development initiative, Davie Works, that focuses on training the current/future workforce and improving job growth to align workforce resources to business needs, as well as working with Davie County Schools to increase student exposure to 21st-century skill requirements and career opportunities.
The County is proud to support the Ignite Davie K-14 Initiative that was spearheaded between the public and private sector, community foundation, and Davidson/Davie County Community College which will allow the next graduating high school class to attend the community college at no charge to them up to three years post-graduation. Davie County is also pleased to support and partner with early childhood educational efforts from Smart Start, the new Cognition Children’s Museum, Davie County Schools, and Davidson/Davie County Community College. It takes a village, and all of these programs will nurture future leaders among us who will take us to levels we only envisioned.
