Family Update
Davis Middle School
May 15, 2026
The 8th grade students had a packed week of fun! Between Washington, DC, the Ohio State Reformatory, the Columbus Zoo, the movies, and a cookout there wasn't much down time. Next week is the 6th and 7th grades' turn to get out of the building a bit. 6th grade will be going to a Clippers game and the 7th grade will be taking their annual fishing field trip. These will offer a great time to our students.
In the midst of the fun, the learning continues, MAP tests are getting wrapped up, trimester and year end projects are being completed, and we are gearing up for a great week of HOPE next week. Please see below for the spirit week that our Hope Squad has planned. Wednesday we will have our final pep rally of the year to award the popular Spirit Stick and then we will have Spring Fest from 3:30-5:30pm. This year Spring Fest will be for Davis students only as an opportunity for them to celebrate a great year together.
Have a great weekend.
Go Irish!
Jaime
Hope Week!
