Research Jefferson Davis Middle School public Schools in Williamsburg, Virginia

“This is a fantasic middle school. Someone I care for attends there and I feel it is better then some of the higher rated schools. To the staff: keep up the great work the kids enjoy being with you and that is key to a great education.”

“I think Jeff Davis is one of the best Public City schools in the area. I have had 3 kids attend JDM in the passed 2 years and have not had any problems go unresolved. It has a very solid foundation, with a very caring staff. A school can only be as good as the teachers, students, PTA and parents can make it. If i could make one suggestion it would be to have more teacher/parent/student team building exercises to bring everyone closer...and help to mold the childrens minds in a positive direction. One of my other suggetions would be to encourage the staff to possibly interact more with the feeder schools and maybe have some type of consolidated community fundraiser to allow the children to do something positive, give the teachers and parents another opportunity to interact outside of the classroom and pull down those barriers that separate them.”

“The success of any school depends on several factors: i.e., students, parents, teachers, and administrators. What has declined over the years is the parental involvement. If parents and students want a better school they have to look for ways to make the school better. The school has highly qualified and highly dedicated teachers who go beyond the normal school day to ensure the success of every student.”

“i really like going to that school and the teachers are very wonderful with us and the y love us like their own children and the principal is wonderful he helps the kids with some of their problems and he is the best principal a school can have and he has a great leadership with the school and in every grade level we have a vice principal to Handel the children's concerns and they are there everyday and if they are not there the teacher will send you to the main principal and they will have to deal with the consequences .”

“I have a 6th grader who attends Davis Middle and an 8th who is now at Bethel. I am very unhappy with the lack of education. I feel that some of the teacher are there to just rec a pay check and not to educate the students. They don't offer any extracurricular activities.”

“I am an 8th grade student at this school, and I believe that this school is terrible! It is very unsanitary, it doesn't offer many extracurricular activities, and we have to ride horrible city buses, which have a bad history of leaving students behind.”
