Davenport Elementary School's academic performance has been mixed compared to the state and district averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) for all grades (60.1%) were higher than the state average (53.1%) but lower than the district average (73.9%). In mathematics, the school's proficiency rates for all grades (50.3%) were higher than the state average (38.5%) but lower than the district average (54.2%). The school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with some grades and subjects performing better than others. Notably, Congerville Elementary School, another school in the Eureka CUD 140 district, consistently outperforms Davenport Elementary School on state assessments.

Another area of concern for Davenport Elementary School is its high chronic absenteeism rate, which has increased from 7.7% in 2022-2023 to 25.4% in 2024-2025, significantly higher than the state average. The school's diverse student population includes 31.13% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's performance varies among different student subgroups, with male students and special education students generally performing better than female students and white students. The school's low socioeconomic status students have struggled, with proficiency rates significantly lower than the state and district averages. Addressing these disparities and improving overall academic outcomes, particularly in mathematics, should be a focus for Davenport Elementary School.
