===Public schools===
Davis' public school system is administrated by the [[Davis Joint Unified School District]].

The city has nine public elementary schools (North Davis, Birch Lane, Pioneer Elementary, Patwin, Cesar Chavez, Robert E. Willett, Marguerite Montgomery, Fred T. Korematsu at Mace Ranch, and Fairfield Elementary (which is outside the city limits but opened in 1866 and is Davis Joint Unified School District's oldest public school)). Davis has one school for [[Alternative education|independent study]] (Davis School for Independent Study), four public [[Middle school|junior high schools]] (Ralph Waldo Emerson, [[Oliver Wendell Holmes Junior High School|Oliver Wendell Holmes]], Frances Harper, and Leonardo da Vinci Junior High), one main high school ([[Davis Senior High School (California)|Davis Senior High School]]), one [[Alternative school|alternative high school]] (Martin Luther King High School), and a small project based high school ([[Leonardo da Vinci High School]]). Cesar Chavez is a [[Language immersion|Spanish immersion]] school, with no English integration until the third grade. The junior high schools contain grades 7 through 9. Due to a decline in the school-age population in Davis, two of the elementary schools in south Davis may have their district boundaries changed, or magnet programs may be moved to equalize enrollment. Valley Oak was closed after the 2007–08 school year, and their campus was granted to Da Vinci High (which had formerly been located in the back of Davis Senior High's campus) and a special-ed preschool. On average, class size is about 25 students for every teacher.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ed-data.org/district/Yolo/Davis-Joint-Unified|title=EdData – District Profile – Davis Joint Unified|website=ed-data.org|access-date=July 12, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180712052603/http://www.ed-data.org/district/Yolo/Davis-Joint-Unified|archive-date=July 12, 2018|url-status=live}}</ref>

At one time, Chavez and Willett were incorporated together to provide elementary education K–6 to both English-speaking and Spanish immersion students in West Davis. César Chávez served grades K–3 and was called West Davis Elementary, and Robert E. Willett (named for a long-time teacher at the school, now deceased) served grades 4–6 and was known as West Davis Intermediate. Willett now serves K–6 English-speaking students, and Chavez supports the Spanish immersion program for K–6.
