(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have been going to this school ever since first grade and I'm now in fifth grade. I think this is an OK school, but I hate it. Their teachers are really just bad, except for the art teacher, and I hate going there. so my advice is, DO NOT GO TO BUCHANAN SCHOOL IN DAVENPORT, Iowa.
