Summary
Pacific Elementary is a K–6 school in Davenport, California, with 173 students. Its academic results vary sharply by subject: science is a standout, but ELA and math trail the nearby-school averages, and attendance is a concern. The clearest grade-level warning is fourth grade, where Pacific had the lowest ELA and math results among the ten nearby schools, with proficiency of 28% in ELA and 26% in math.
Science is Pacific’s strongest subject compared with both the state and nearby schools. In 2025–26, 67% of students were proficient in science, versus 36% statewide and a 55% nearby-school average; Pacific ranked second among the eleven schools compared. ELA and math tell a different story: proficiency was 49% in ELA and 44% in math, compared with nearby averages of 58% and 55%, respectively. Those results were close to the state in ELA (49%) and above it in math (38%), but Pacific ranked second-lowest among the nearby schools in both subjects. The reported test scores for the Pacific Elementary district match the school’s scores.
Pacific’s ELA and math results have declined over four reported years: ELA fell from 62% in 2022–23 to 49% in 2025–26, and math from 62% to 44%. Over the same period, the state’s ELA rate rose, leaving Pacific just below the state; its math advantage also narrowed. SchoolDigger rated Pacific at the 66th percentile and 3 stars in 2025–26, down 16 percentile points from two years earlier; only one nearby school had a lower percentile. Attendance is another concern: chronic absenteeism was 20% in 2025–26, the highest among nearby schools and above the state’s 18%, despite improvement from 33% in 2022–23. For context, Pacific’s 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 22.6, and 41% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, compared with a 27% nearby-school average. These measures describe the school’s context, not the cause of its results.
