Postponements set due to world-wide virus
DAVISON (DTV) – (3/12/2020) – Davison Community Schools’ Superintendent Kevin Brown has just released information on delays of non-essential events. These are all due to the infamous spreading virus COVID-19, otherwise known as coronavirus. Although, what exactly is Coronavirus?
Coronavirus:
“Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that are common in both humans and animals that usually cause mild-to-moderate respiratory illnesses”, says Yale-New Haven Health. Symptoms of this rapidly-evolving virus are shortness of breath, having fevers and coughing.
How is this spread?
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announces this to be circulated “between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet)”. This is also spread through respiratory drops made when a person with the virus sneezes or coughs.
How can I guarantee my protection and others’ from this virus?
Although there is no vaccine for this virus, there are still many precautions you can take in order to stop the spread:
- Clean your hands often: Wash hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds
- Avoid close contact with others: Distance yourself about 6 feet with others
If you’re feeling under the weather, there are many steps you can take to stop it from getting others sick as well:
- Stay home if you’re sick: Don’t risk the spread, stay in bed if you’re sick
- Cover your coughs and sneezes: Try and cover yourself with tissues or your elbow
- Wear a face-mask: Yes, it may seem silly, but it’s better to be safe than sorry
- Clean and disinfect: Clean tables, doorknobs, light switches, counter-tops, handles, desks, phones, keyboards, toilets, faucets, and sinks to stay healthy!
What events have been postponed at DHS?
There have been several events that have been postponed here at Davison High School
- Thomson Elementary Family Reading Night
- Mr. Davison Show
- Parent Teacher Conferences
- DCER’s Daddy Daughter Dance
- And ALL NONESSENTIAL EVENTS
Make sure to take all of the precautions in order to stay away from this virus!

Davison Community Schools promotes “Say Something”
DAVISON (DTV) – (3/6/2020) – After acts of youth violence or self-harm, facts often come that peers knew something was going to happen but didn’t know what to do with it.
To be factual, in every four out of five school shootings at the LEAST, information comes out that the shooter’s friends knew the shooter’s intentions. Also, seven out of ten people who committed suicide told one another about their plans. If people know what to do in these situations there wouldn’t be nearly as much tragedy as there is today.
To solve this issue, Davison Community Schools is introducing Sandy Hook Promise’s Say Something program.
Say Something will raise awareness and teach students how to realize warning signs, threats and signals; and to “say something” to a trusted adult. During this week, they have been and will be participating in Say Something Week by sharing resources with parents and students about the tools available to them to report suspicious or alarming behavior.
Here at Davison Community Schools, some of these tools include:
The SafeCards App (download the app from your Apple App store or Google Play)
The Report Bullying link on our home page, www.davisonschools.org
OK2SAY https://www.michigan.gov/
Say Something encourages teachers to talk with their students about the importance of being upstanders – and saying something to prevent violence and to look out for one another. Attached will be a brochure for parents with more information on how you can talk to your student about being an upstander.
Also, many teachers here at DHS are trained in mental health first aid and have signs hanging out side of their rooms. These teachers have gone through training to help students who are concerned about their personal safety or another student’s mental health.
All in all, if you see something you should say something to help keep our schools a safe place for everyone.
