Patwin Elementary is a public elementary school in Davis, California, serving 399 students in grades K-6 as part of the Davis Joint Unified School District. The school consistently performs above the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics on Smarter Balanced Assessments, with 63.93% of students proficient or better in ELA and 59.82% in Math, compared to state averages of 48.81% and 37.3%, respectively.

Patwin Elementary has a strong track record in supporting its special education and disabled student populations, ranking 373 out of 2,634 California elementary schools for special education students and 381 out of 2,227 for disabled students, both with a 4-star rating.
