School Reviews
5 5/19/2023
Davenport is an amazing school that caters to the needs of the students. They are very competitive in all sports including band, color guard, bowling, and swimming. They have a variety of sports and activities for the students to engage in. My children are African American, and it is very limited the number of black/brown students that are in the school, but my children are used to the lack of diversity being that they have lived in various places due to the Military. They enjoyed the school and were involved in all of the things that the school offers. It is an amazing school with great teachers and amazing support staff. The students learn and are challenged academically. Their expectations for the students are high. This is one of the best schools my kiddos have ever attended and we have traveled quite a bit. I could go on and on about this school and how amazing it is.
