GreatSchools Rating

My oldest daughter has attended both Bowie & Dezavala, and I have to say for her Dezavala is a better fit. I have always heard only glowing things about Bowie but it has its faults also. No school is perfect. I as a parent never felt really at home at Bowie. However,at Dezavala I am involved in both my daughters' classrooms, and have found a warm, open door policy. I say to parents with negative things to say, just BE INVOLVED! The help is needed & welcomed, and you can see for yourself how dedicated & hardworking most teachers are. Its like complaining about the government & not being a registered voter. Some parents have never even set foot in classrooms, even when required. If your childs teracher sees you as interested, engaged, and involved, your child will benefit, believe me. It is worth your time, and your childs school, Dezavala or otherwise, will only be better for it.
