Grace M. Davis High School
I have been involved in many high schools, both professionally and as a parent. By far, Grace Davis is at the top of the list. As a place to work, it has been wonderful under every principal in the past 25+ years! As a school for my children, the education they received was outstanding! Three of four children have completed or are still completing college and graduate school. The fourth is currently a high school senior and planning to attend a UC next year. I can't say enough about the wonderful teachers, counselors, administrators and staff as well as the many fantastic students at GDHS! I wish every student could have thgreat experience my children had in high school!
