Elementary Schools in Davenport Community School District

Summary:

The Davenport Community School District in Iowa operates 18 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 6th grade, with a few also offering pre-kindergarten. The district as a whole is ranked 297 out of 313 school districts in Iowa and is rated 0 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

A few schools stand out as performing better than the district and state averages. Blue Grass Elementary School and Buffalo Elementary School are ranked among the top elementary schools in the state and have significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the district and state. Walcott Elementary School also outperforms the district and state in many subject areas, particularly Mathematics.

However, the data reveals a significant performance gap between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools, such as Jefferson Elementary, Madison Elementary, Garfield Elementary, and Hayes Elementary. This suggests a need to better understand the factors contributing to these disparities and implement targeted interventions. Additionally, the district faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates and potential funding inequities that may be impacting educational outcomes.
