Step Two: Write a personal statement explaining why you feel that Da Vinci would be beneficial to you, and what you are willing to offer to the school.

Step Three: Arrange for a recommendation form to be completed. Ask someone who knows you well to complete the form. We suggest teachers, clergy, scout leaders, employers, etc.  Anyone may complete the recommendation form online once it is posted and send via email to wlewis@djusd.k12.ca.us). There is a version in rtf/doc format that can be downloaded and filled in and emailed as an attachment to Wendy Lewis or printed out and completed and mailed to Da Vinci at 1400 E. 8th  Street, Room 12,Davis, CA 95616.  It can be hand delivered to the Da Vinci High School office by the person making the recommendation in a sealed envelope, but not by the student or the student's parents.
