Members of the Davis School District Board of Education welcomed families for an evening of conversation, collaboration and feedback. Following an open-house exhibit hall and keynote address, board members led small-group discussions designed to gather community perspectives on district priorities.
Parents and community members participated in guided breakout sessions, offering feedback through discussion, dot-mapping activities and digital input. These conversations will help inform the Board of Education as it continues developing a strategic plan that reflects the needs, values and goals of the Davis School District community.
We appreciate everyone who took the time to attend, share ideas and engage in shaping the future of our schools.

Stay informed during inclement weather!
Student safety is always the top priority when making school closure or delay decisions. Closures or delayed starts are determined in the early morning after reviewing road conditions, weather reports and forecasts across the entire district, as conditions can vary by area.
If a closure or two-hour delayed start is needed, families will be notified as early as possible by phone call, text and email. Updates are also shared on school websites and district social media channels.
Families may always choose to keep their student home if travel feels unsafe, and schools will support missed learning. When schools are open, they remain a safe, warm environment for students.
Bus routes may be delayed during inclement weather, and students should dress appropriately for current conditions.

Being in class each day helps students stay engaged, build momentum and grow academically.
We value our partnership with families, and consistent attendance supports learning, connection and confidence in the classroom.
Let’s kick off 2026 ready to learn—together.
About 30 junior high students read with preschoolers and played games they created from the stories, forming instant connections.
“It was magical,” said Davis School District Male Involvement/Program Specialist Brett Lund. “So cool to see the interaction between the big friends and little friends.”
Attendees also enjoyed the Catalyst Student Showcase, which featured innovative projects created by students. The evening provided a valuable opportunity for participants to learn about potential career paths, network with professionals and gain insights into future possibilities.
