I was very pleased with the staff and teachers. My daughters teachers always kept me informed about everything. I think all in all it is a good school. The only thing negative is that when I would have lunch with my daughter they did not seem to supervise the kids as well as they should have. the older kids would be yelling,pushing and shoving each other. I felt that that should have been addressed but otherwise I was very happy with the school. I wish we had not had to move because the school my daughter attends now has caused my child to hate school.
I am very happy with AM Davis and all the staff! We just recently moved and with the help from the staff, my kids made a great transition. Starting in the office the ladies are always willing to help with any questions or concerns you may have. The activities that have been offered from family game night, to the fall festival, have been a wonderful way for me to meet other families in the neighborhood. I am very happy with this school and think you will be too!
This school has the most caring staff ever!
Some of the best & caring teachers anywhere
A.M. Davis is a great school. It was a pleasure to see my Kindengartener and 1st grader do so well during the school year. My husband and I also enjoyed attending all the family activities that the school provided. I would refer the school to anyone who wants a great education for their grade schooler.
i am not happy with this school. i feel that my son was not changed enough... he never had homework, and i did know what he was learning in class each week.
This is a great school. The staff knows me by name, my child started K 3 months ago. Every child is greeted by name as they come through the doors and tons of compliments are given to them (I like your new pack, new haircut, etc). The Speech dept is outstanding. The principal, Mrs. Lowery, on down are very approachable and attentive to the parents as well as the children. They have the Va teacher of the year that may become the national teacher of the year. Excellent, excellent, excellent!
We love Davis. The teachers and the staff demonstrate great concern for all the students. The PTA works closely with the students, teachers, and staff. Many wonderful events are held at the school for the students and families to participate in. The environment is welcoming to parents. Good job Davis!
I love AM Davis........My daughter attends this school...she is involved in activities and other events with the school and she loves it as well....and the teachers are great!!!!!
I am very disappointed in some aspects of Davis. While there are excellent teachers at this school there are the substandard ones. I have been appalled at times by the schools willingness to allow inappropriate conduct from its students and faculty. School is no longer a safe place for the sensitive or average child. Recess is [not] long [enough] which is incredible since studies have shown our children do not get enough exercise which is crucial to having a healthy mind as well as body.
