Our Annual State of the District Report
At the end of every school year, we take a look back at the many wonderful things that have happened. The 2011-2012 school year at Davenport Community Schools was one filled with amazing successes relating to our students, staff, and academic programming. Our educators continued to garner Teacher of the Year Awards, our student athletes won state championships, and one of our student robotics teams competed in a World Championships event!
To aid in a retrospective “look back,” we’ve created a print piece called the 2012 State of the District. To download a PDF version of this document, click here.

A heartfelt congratulations to all of our students, teachers, and staff for these recent triumphs. We’re keeping up the great work in 2012-2013, so pay attention to this page for a brand new State of the District this summer!
