Started Kindergarten this year and love the staff. My child is high energy and has been able to meet with Ms. Tomlin who has done wonders. She is caring, communicates daily (via email), and is great with positive reinforcement. Ms. Ryan who does adventure club is the BEST! Lots of fun activities and focuses on teaching life skills to the kiddos as well!

Absolutely horrendous. If I could I’d pull my child and place her elsewhere. The attitudes lack integrity and professionalism. They lack compassion and understanding, and they don’t build value or morality within my particular child. She came home literally singing “In My Feelings” by Drake that she learned at school because her teacher played it in class. This is a song about sex, capitalizing on a man because of his “net worth”, and is highly inappropriate for an eight year old.

I used to work for the district and this is the worst staff I’ve ever dealt with.

My children are not safe at this school due to situations that have happened that the school has tried to conceal. Their educational teaching is behind, and teachers allow play too much in the class instead of learning. The parents might as well home school their children to get them the education that they need. The fund raising money goes into some type of black hole, where there is no improvements to the class room or field trips. Also, if there is even 1 field trip during the entire school year, it is poorly planned and the teachers loose track of the children. The school is only about reaching the attendance, even though the nurses are quick to send a child home for anything, including things that would not effect the health of that child or other children. There are always multiple children that are not sick or injured in the nurses office waiting to be picked up by their parents (that have to take off work multiple times per month).

Davidson is one big family. We work hard together and support each other and the community. The teachers care about the students and work hard to foster a safe and positive learning environment for kids.
