From the Principal
Davis Families -
Just a few reminders, the school doors open at 7:40 a.m. and students should report to the cafeteria. When the bell rings at 7:50 a.m., students will be dismissed to go to their lockers and then to their first hour class.
As I indicated in previous letters/emails, the Raider Review will come to you every Thursday and will contain calendar dates, Davis items, and UCS information weekly. It is the primary communication source from the school and a great way to stay in tuned with what is happening at Davis and the school district. The most current information will be at the top of the newsletter and items from previous weeks will be archived as you scroll through the document toward the bottom.
Open House for Davis Jr High will be held on Tuesday, September 20th, 2022 at 7pm. Parents and Guardians are welcome to attend to see your child's school and meet the teachers. Students do not need to attend Open House.
Mr. Shepard
Principal

Davis Junior High Student ID Policy School Year 2022-23
(All Students Must Have ID’s Visible)
Davis Junior High School continues to work to ensure the safety and security for all staff and students. This is a top priority
each and every day. All students at Davis will now be required to wear and have visible their school ID badges at all times. Students need to wear their IDs to purchase lunch or snacks.
The wearing of student IDs provides easy identification of students for teachers,
substitutes, district staff personnel, and law enforcement if ever needed. Students need to have their ID's visible when in the halls and during lunch as well as any office areas throughout the school. To avoid leaving one at home or losing their ID's, students should get into the habit of leaving them in their lockers at the end of each day.
REPLACEMENT ID COST IS $5 if lost or damaged.
School pictures and ID's were taken at Raider Day and then again on August 31st for those that missed Raider Day.
The next and final date for retakes and new students is TBD. Please be sure to read the weekly newsletter for that upcoming date.
Laptop STUDENT Use Reminder...
Students are NOT to be using their school issued laptop for personal use.
It is for student /school use only. Students are not allowed to download games, extensions, add vpns, etc., and are not to use their student email to create any accounts unless they have an authorization from a teacher. This also helps to keep their email inbox free of clutter and spam as well as inadvertently downloading a virus.
The TEAMS chat and call features is available ONLY to reach out to teachers and staff and to be utilized during class meetings. This is the same for all platforms/apps that act as a communication tool. Students can set up group chats but is limited to homework and school related content. This applies to Schoology messages as well as email.
Please feel free to check your student's laptops to be sure they are using the laptops accordingly. Please contact the school if you have any questions regarding your student's laptop.
