Shotwell middle school in Aldine ISD is one of the worst school to let your child go to. They allow school bullying and students fighting.

As a former student from this davis ninth grade school I would like to share the experience with parents in this website as I myself like reading websites and this sort of stuff on the internet.My experience personally would be like okay as I have managed to pass my classes and sometimes due to my own research in the subjects learned at school.There has been fights in this school gossip and drama(there's even a sleeping page on instagram for this school) some teachers do teach and others are almost all the time absent,during covid a sub had to sub more than one classes from the scarcity of teachers(some where sick and the others I dont really know) there's many kids you can meet personally-there's no shame in race or culture in here you are very welcomed including if you are in need of special education although there's times some do face bullying.( if you are in need of special education I do recommend doubting this school as there has been times kids vape and smoke in the restroom although it has been greatly improved by the staff members and cleaning staff) building a great relationships with teachers is quite helpful because if you are in the hallways without a pass half the time they grab you and just send you to detention WITHOUT KNOWING who you are and what you where up to even if you where sent by a teacher without a pass and now that you dont come back they suspect you have been skipping rather than you getting caught by a teacher that now doesnt believe a word you say( they really have trust issues)positive side of this is that you get davis bucks and there's a raffle where depending on how many you have you can buy from chips to passes for extra credit, drop a low grade, and even sometimes depending on social groups you are a chat where y'all can help each other on homework (this is what a call integrity and teamwork)

This is my second year at Davis and I will say is not as bad as people portray this school to be. The main issue of the school is most definitely the students they are more worried about others than themselves and getting their work done and get distracted by drama at the school, I will say tho the staff/faculty has stepped up their efforts on disciplinary actions towards the students and actually seem to care more than they did last year but most of the time it doesn’t last long and they go back to the same bad habits . Overall, I would not recommend Davis to anyone unless you are interested in sports or any CTE program the school has to offer.
