The Last Newscast in the Sandy Coots Studio

by

DAVISON(DTV) – (12/04/2024) – This year has been an exciting year for DTV as we continue to make the transition to our new space in the Performing Arts Center.
This Monday, we had our final newscast in the old studio. While we are excited for the future, we can’t help but shed a few tears as we say goodbye to a space that holds so many memories for over two decades. Literal blood, sweat, and many many tears went into that studio and classroom.
We are so grateful to our community, administration, teachers, and students for all of the support in moving DTV into the future. We of course must acknowledge all of the DTV legends of years past that absolutely made all of this possible. Without you all, we would not be where we are today. You all propelled us toward this monumental moment!
So goodbye to our old studio, but hello to new beginnings!

Here’s our last live newscast in the studio

Here is the Farewell Video aired in the newscast

Internet Issues

by

The amount of people on the internet has been increasing steadily throughout the last century and with the new, constant exposure to social media and instant messaging systems; problems like Cyberbullying and Sexting are at an all-time high among teens. With this increase and a recent case right in the Davison community, Michigan State Police came to host seminars regarding the dangers of these actions on the web.

DTV’s Rebekah Allen followed the story and produced a two-part series called Internet Issues with the first installment tackling Cyberbullying and the second piece informed students on the dangers of sexting. The series aired on Monday, March 26th and the following day on the 27th during the DTV daily newscast. You can head on over to our YouTube page DTV News or click the link below to educate yourself on the dangers. Remember to think before you send!

Rollaway Lanes: Through The Years

by

Rollaway Lanes, in the City of Davison, has not only given the community a place to bowl, but a second home for many. The Greene family started construction of the new business in 1946, and has passed it down from generation to generation. Starting as a roller skating rink, and working it’s way up to the bowling alley we know and love today.

The bowling alley is also a home for Davison High School’s Varsity and JV bowling teams.

Vice President Visit

by

Vice President Mike Pence made a two day stop in Michigan to rally support for the new Tax reform. He spoke to the workers at the American Axial and Manufacturing company  about what this new bill would do if passed. Some of the main points are that it would simplify the tax code by reducing the  7 tax brackets to 3 and make filing  easier. Also, this bill would eliminate the estate tax and eliminates some tax deductions. But if a big tax brake like this one passes a big question is where will the money come from? That is a question that has yet to be answered. One thing is for sure that to pass this bill both sides will have to work together.
