Edward White Elementary consistently ranks among the top 20% of Iowa elementary schools, with students outperforming the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science on the Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASP) tests. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 86.5% of 3rd graders, 81% of 4th graders, 84.2% of 5th graders, and 91.8% of 6th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 67.9%, 76%, 69.8%, and 72.8%, respectively. The school's strong academic performance sets it apart from many nearby schools in the Davenport Community School District and the Bettendorf Community School District.

While Edward White Elementary has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a higher socioeconomic status compared to nearby schools, the school faces a higher rate of chronic absenteeism compared to the state average. The school's spending per student ($11,322 in 2018-2019) is slightly higher than the state average but lower than some of the nearby schools in the Davenport Community School District, indicating that it is able to achieve its strong academic performance with a relatively efficient use of resources. Additionally, the school has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to its academic success.
