We’ve got some Kinder-artists in the making! Our Kindergarteners are off to a fantastic start this year, exploring different types of lines and honing their drawing skills. Keep up the amazing work, little artists!​

8th grade visual and media arts students from Sudlow Middle School and Creative Arts Academy took their creativity to new heights at the Figge Art Museum. 

Students dove into the world of art and are gearing up to craft parodies for the mobile audio tour and curate the Learn 2 Look gallery space later this year. 

Earlier this month, Hayes Elementary celebrated the school's 100th anniversary with a family picnic for all the students.

The event even featured an actor dressed as President Hayes, who shared interesting facts about the school's history! It was wonderful to see families and students having a great time and engaged in the festivities. 

DCSD student-athletes are putting in the hard work all summer long. Members of the West Falcon Football and Central Blue Devils Football teams recently participated in the Iowa National Guard Fit Camp. This camp gave athletes the opportunity to take on fitness challenges and hear from speakers on leadership and team strength.

Over 60 students from 20 QC schools kicked off summer at the show choir camp hosted by Davenport North High School, learning vocals and choreography in just 8 hours before an outstanding public performance!

Student volunteers from the North show choir assumed leadership positions to make it all possible: Two choreographers collaborated in creating and teaching all the dancing; counselors connected with campers, working in small groups to help them learn the show; General assistants helped organize and run the event behind the scenes; the PR team documented each day, preparing a slideshow to highlight all the fun had.

Even during summer break, our students are always active. Davenport West High School hosted an action-packed 5-day kids camp for 2nd-7th grade boys and girls! Participants enjoyed exploring a variety of sports including tennis, soccer, track & field, football, swimming, wrestling, volleyball, basketball, baseball, and softball.

Hayes Elementary Principal James Goddard said it best, “It is so cool to see the community out here in full force supporting the efforts from the City of Davenport Government and supporting DCSD as we work with kids to grow excellence in our community."

This summer we celebrated the ribbon cutting of the new Dohse Splash and Play Park located at Hayes Elementary with the community. We are thankful for the partnership with the City to make this project happen!

The English Learner Summer Learning Program has been busy this summer. Students have been fully engaged in immersive enrichment activities designed to strengthen their English language skills throughout the summer break.

From ordering at restaurants to enjoying movie outings and exploring the Figge, students across all grade levels have been actively participating and learning in real-world settings. These experiences not only enhance their language abilities but also build confidence in using English in everyday situations.

Congratulations to the North High School Boys relay team that took 2nd place in the Quad-City Times Bix 7 Battle Up Brady.
