2024 APEX Awards | Volunteer of the Year | Jessica Davies

As many volunteers do, Jessica Davies began volunteering at Alta View Elementary to be involved in the education of her children. What kept her coming back, even after her children had moved on to other schools, is her embrace of the philosophy of early childhood researcher Lilian Katz, who once said, “The good life for our own children can be secured only if a good life is also secure for all other people’s children.” It’s a motto she placed at the heart of her work as a volunteer — and now, as a support assistant at Alta View. “Working with children really resonates with me,” says Davies. “I just love seeing all the kids growing up every day, and the people who work at this school are absolutely incredible. Getting to spend time with such amazing people every day is really rewarding for me.” Principal Scott Jameson says Davies’ contributions, from her role on the Road Runners’ PTA and School Community Council, are too numerous to count. She put her photography skills to work marketing Alta View, and spearheaded the school’s most successful fundraisers. With the money raised, the school purchased attendance incentives, which doubled attendance at the school. Never one to watch from the sidelines, she’s the kind of person who sees a need and fills a need, and her infectious enthusiasm encourages others to step up as well. “Year after year she has consistently helped our school be successful,” Jameson says. “She has volunteered, spent hours recruiting other volunteers and has made our school a community, a family, and a place where it’s wonderful to teach, a place where it’s wonderful to learn.” For these, and countless other reasons, the Canyons Board of Education and Administration are proud to present Jessica Davies with the 2024 Apex Award for Volunteer of the Year.
