The DHS parking lot situation

by

DAVISON (DTV) – (8/23/2021) – Everyone knows that the parking lot issue is quite prominent. With construction happening, numbers faded away, and more student drivers than ever, it is packed to the max. However, there are ways to get around this until these problems are solved:

  1. Park in YOUR spot.
  2. Until the numbers are painted, you can find your spot by counting the rows around your spot and following the numbers.
  3. IF someone is in your spot, park in the visitor lot and report it to the main office.
  4. If you want a map they can be found in the main office.
  5. And when communicating with staff, peers, and anyone else, treat them with respect and remain calm.

The numbers in the parking lot are going to be painted soon, so make sure to stay patient and this problem will be resolved.

A Long Awaited End

by

DAVISON (DTV) – (6/09/2021) – On Monday, June 7th, the Davison Class of 2021 officially graduated and are taking the next step in their lives, although, this graduation was special.

For one, it was outside instead of it being inside. There had been the two previous drive-in graduations by Davison Schools for the 2020 Class, however, with semi-lifted COVID-19 restrictions taking place, a full audience was at the brand-new Cardinal Football Field.

That is another new twist to the typical graduation-it was on the recently-placed turf the Cardinal Football team plays on. With these new additions, though, the weather is another one that can’t be forgotten.

The fear of a rain-out was on everyone’s minds, but Principal Jacobs affirmed, “We’re having the graduation happen, rain or shine.” 

And so it did; the graduation continued, parents witnessed their kids walk across the stage, and the students got to flip their tassels at the end. 

Watch this and more below!

Full Graduation:
