Summary

Davis Elementary School in Marietta, GA, serves 635 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Cobb County School District, and it has earned a 5-star rating with a statewide rank of 82nd out of 1,219 elementary schools—its best showing in a decade.

What truly sets Davis apart is its exceptional attendance and math performance. The chronic absenteeism rate is just 3.1%, compared to 14.2% for the district and 17.7% statewide—a remarkable advantage that supports consistent learning. In math, proficiency rates are outstanding across all grades: 79.8% in 3rd grade, 80.6% in 4th grade, and 77.1% in 5th grade, all roughly 25–33 percentage points above district and state averages. This consistency suggests a well-aligned math curriculum from grade to grade. Davis also shines for its special education students, ranking in the 93rd percentile statewide, which shows that strong results extend to learners who often need extra support. Both boys and girls perform at similarly high levels (94th and 93rd percentiles, respectively), indicating equitable outcomes across the student body.

Compared to nearby schools, Davis holds its own and often leads. It outperforms Shallowford Falls Elementary in 4th and 5th grade math, beats Garrison Mill Elementary in 3rd and 4th grade math, and posts significantly higher math scores than Arnold Mill Elementary and Woodstock Elementary across all grade levels. Science is the one area with room to grow—5th grade proficiency is 67.2%, well above state and district averages but trailing Addison Elementary (85.9%) and Mountain View Elementary (78.6%). Still, Davis improved science scores by an impressive 23 percentage points in one year. Add in lower per-student spending ($15,523) than several peers with weaker results, and Davis stands out as a high-performing, efficient choice for families.

Open Quote Very disappointed in Dr. Mobley's performance. She cares about test scores - not our children, especially special needs kids. She does not seems to want them in her school. This needs to change. Close Quote
