It is horrible all the students do is fight and argue the teachers act like children and there is little to no parental involvement. And the food at this school looks like prison food. Another thing teachers keep grabbing and putting their hands on students for little things like asking to go to the restroom.

My son has been in attendance at Davison since he was 3 years old; he is now 8. The staff is very support and I know that he went to school and learned. Although my son wears two hearing aids and had a speech delay he is now able to attend general education classes. This school has taught him a lot and made great accommodations!

This school is great!! All 4 if my children go here . They are number 2 in detroit and 8 in michigan. They have been on the news several times for being such a great school. They have mock trial, academic games,garden club ,archery, etc. The teachers care so much, they may yell but it's because they care. Some people say this school is bad this school is bad but if they were bad would they be number 2 in detroit and 8 in michigan. The city of detroit tried to close Davison down every year but they can't our test score are so good they have no reason to close this school down. Choose Davison

Over crowded, teachers could careless if your child learns anything. Parents are never informed if your child his failing. They never contact you concerning your childs behavior or academics via telephone, progress reports, letters through mail, nothing. Not a good school if you really care about your child's education. Teaches curse at the students, students run all over the building with not a care in the world. Horrible school and I can't wait to get my kids out!

My child went to 4th grade. One of the 4th grade female teacher don't know how to behave with kids and don't care about it kids. I had coversaton with her: i found she lie a lot and not honest at all. If the teacher lie, what the kids are going to learn from there. And the principal don't take action about those situations. She let it go.
