My name is Kimberly Davis and I am excited to be working with your children. I am thrilled to continue new traditions with the Sawnee community. I look forward to visiting classrooms, mystery reading, and much more fun and fulfilling events. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you need anything.

My name is Keith Whitaker and I am excited about starting my 7th year as a member of the Sawnee family. I have been an educator for 29 years, the last 18 of those spent in Forsyth County. I spent 6 years as a math teacher at North Forsyth High School and worked as an administrator at Sawnee Elementary, North High, Matt Elementary before returning to Sawnee three years ago.  I earned my undergraduate degree in Mathematics from Florida State University.  In 2011, I earned a Masters of Education in Leadership from Kennesaw State University.  My wife, Audra, is a Forsyth County native and together we have 3 children - Reese, Payton, and Palmer.  It is a pleasure to work with the Sawnee Community and I am excited to welcome our students and families back this school year.  

I am a University of Alabama alumni with a degree in Elementary Education. Roll Tide!  I also hold a Master’s degree in Special Education from Georgia State University and a Leadership endorsement from the University of Georgia.  My 32-year career in Education spans multiple school systems, including Duval County (Jacksonville, Fl), Atlanta Public Schools, Gwinnett County, and Forsyth County, teaching general and special education in elementary and middle grades. I have spent 12 years as an Assistant Principal at Brookwood Elementary and prior to that, 6 years as an administrator in Gwinnett County. This will be my second year at Sawnee Elementary and I am very excited to continue building relationships with the Sawnee family.  

I am excited about joining the Sawnee Family! This will be my 14th year in Elementary Education; I have taught for 8 years and have worked in Administration for five. I earned my B.A. in Early Childhood Education at Mount Vernon Nazarene University and my M.Ed. in Educational Administration at Ashland University. I am a networker by nature and can’t wait to learn with and from all of you!
