CavClassifieds

CavClassifieds is an electronic advertising service provided by the DA Family Association through which goods or services are advertised.


Ad revenues from this service benefit programs of the Durham Academy Family Association, and your advertisement reaches nearly 4,000 members of our community, including parents, faculty, staff and local alumni and parents of alumni.

Previous ads have listed items to sell, sought items to buy, and advertised for babysitters, summer jobs, house rentals or other services. You may also include lost and found items or advertise your business. 

CavClassifieds is emailed to the DA community and posted online during the first week of each month during the school year, September through June. (You must log in to access the page.) Ad placement is required five school days before the first day of the month.
