Attend Our Open House
Imagine yourself at Davies! Our annual Open House happens every October. The next one is on a Thursday in October 2025, from 6-8 pm. This event allows parents and 8th or 9th-grade students to explore all nine career & technical programs. This is a fantastic opportunity to meet administrators, teachers, staff, and current students and have your questions answered. Please note: No other tours will be offered.
Take the Entrance Exam
Eligible students interested in attending Davies must take the entrance exam, the High School Placement Test (HSPT). You can register for the exam starting at the open house or any time after. Be sure to register early, as space is limited! The 2025 exam dates will be announced in June.
