DAVISON (DTV) – (10/2/19) – Wednesday night the junior and senior powder puff teams took the field, and the reigning champions, the class of 2020, pulled out another win.
After beating the class of 2019 last year, they were looking to make it back to back against the newcomers, the class of 2021.
The Seniors came out to the Cardinal Stadium ready to pounce on the Juniors. Cassie Allard showed that with a touchdown in the middle of the 1st quarter making the score 6-0.
The Juniors struck back with a touchdown of their own just a minute after scored by Paige Anderson, 6-6.
It was stale for the rest of the game until OT came around.
The Juniors came out with a field goal leading the Seniors by 3.
Finally, Kiera Kusinski won the game for the Seniors with a nice catch, making the final score be 12-9. It was a hard-fought battle for both sides and a great game to watch.

To show some school spirit the student council chose this year’s Homecoming theme as “A Blast from the Past.” All classes and staff are assigned a decade to dress up from. They are:

10th- 1960’s

If you’re bringing a date from another school to the dance on October 5th, you’re going to have to do a bit more than just buy a ticket. They will need a guest pass. To get one, they’ll have to have an administrator from another school fill out an application available in the main office. All tickets are $10 which are available during Homecoming week in the cafeteria.
Spirit week is a great way to show to show off your “Blast from the Past” look!

DAVISON (DTV) – (9/10/19) – The week of September 8th through the 14th is National Suicide Prevention week. The Davison High School Student Council is asking students and staff on Thursday, September 12th to wear the color yellow or a yellow ribbon to show support and raise awareness. The purpose of this week is to inform people of how simple actions can save a person’s life. We wear yellow to make sure people know they aren’t alone and that they have people who care.
Student council member Regan Snyder felt it was important to get the entire community involved.
Aside from wearing yellow, you can also help by using the hashtags #NSPW and #StopSuicide when posting about National Suicide Prevention Week. Sharing your story can also be inspirational. Please be nice to everyone because one word can go a mile in someone’s mind.
