Davenport Community School District is excited to announce that last month, we had FIVE students from our schools earn the Iowa Seal of Bilitercy. This is a prestigious award.
Students who earned the Iowa Seal of Bilitercy have attained proficiency in two or more languages, one of which is English by high school graduation.
So why is this award important? Because being able to know and use more than one language is a critical skill for the 21st century. Those who earn the Iowa Seal of Bilitercy are more prepared in the labor market and the global society. The Iowa Seal of Bilitercy provides employers, universities, and grant/school scholarship providers with a method to recognize applicants for their dedication to attainment of bilitercy. This award also recognizes the value of language diversity and cultural identity.
As a school district, we are proud to have had FIVE students receive the Iowa Seal of Bilitercy, this year. Our district serves to create a customized learning environment for all students, and we are so proud of these FIVE students for receiving this prestigious award.

On Monday, Superintendent of Davenport Community Schools, Dr. Robert Kobylski, sat down with KWQC-TV6 to talk about the future of the district. “The piece that really solidified my decision to come to Davenport,” Kobylski says, “was when I went through the interview process. I cycled through no less than a dozen interview committees and teams that fired numerous questions my way, but what I was impressed by was the last question in every single one of those sessions was, “how can we help?” Kobylski says with a community as prideful as Davenport is, and a community willing to roll up their sleeves and help solve problems, it is a perfect spot for a superintendent.
