A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 55 teachers, DAVIS NINTH GRADE has a student/teacher ratio of about 16:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

DAVIS NINTH GRADE, located at 12211 Ella Blvd in Houston, Texas, serves as a specialized transitional campus within the Aldine Independent School District. Designed exclusively for students in their first year of high school, the school focuses on bridging the gap between middle school and the more rigorous academic expectations of a traditional four-year high school. By concentrating solely on ninth-grade students, the campus aims to provide a targeted, supportive environment that emphasizes credit recovery, foundational skill-building, and personalized attention during a critical year of adolescent development.

The school’s mission is rooted in fostering academic success and social-emotional growth, helping students acclimate to the demands of secondary education before they transition to the main high school campus. The faculty at DAVIS NINTH GRADE typically prioritizes intervention strategies and mentorship to ensure that students stay on track for graduation. By operating as a dedicated freshman center, the school seeks to reduce the anonymity often felt in larger high schools, ensuring that each student receives the necessary resources and guidance to establish a strong academic trajectory for their remaining three years of high school.
