Summary

Davis Park Elementary School is a PK–5 elementary school in Terre Haute, Indiana, serving 325 students as part of the Vigo County School Corp, a district that ranks 270th of 374 Indiana districts (28th percentile, 1 star). In 2025–26, Davis Park ranked 915th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 10th percentile, with 0 stars — a steady decline from roughly the 31st percentile in 2015–16 and 2016–17, the 24th percentile in 2022–23 and 2023–24, and the 17th percentile in 2024–25. In 2024–25, 91.08% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academics are the school's most urgent concern. In 2025–26, all-grade ILEARN proficiency was 13.89% in ELA, 20.14% in math, and 19.61% in science, compared with district rates of 31.23%, 33.0%, and 35.12%. Overall scores mask a severe 5th-grade problem: 5th-grade ELA proficiency was just 2.08%, math 10.42%, and social studies 12.5% — the lowest 5th-grade ELA result among nearby schools, which ranged from Lost Creek Elementary School at 53.77% to Farrington Grove Elementary School at 8%. Third grade looks comparatively stronger at 26.67% in ELA and 31.11% in math. Among nearby schools, Lost Creek Elementary School ranks in the 74th percentile with 4 stars and Adelaide De Vaney Elementary School in the 41st, while Farrington Grove Elementary School (6th percentile) and Benjamin Franklin Elementary School (5th) rank below Davis Park.

Chronic absenteeism is another major barrier: 33.5% in 2024–25, above the district's 27.4% and the state's 16.7%, and second only to Farrington Grove Elementary School (39.2%) among nearby schools. It has climbed from 10.4% in 2020–21. Notably, Davis Park spends more per student ($11,151 in 2023–24) and has a smaller student-teacher ratio (12.3) than several higher-performing neighbors, though it serves a much higher-poverty population. Davis Park also lost ground relative to its district, with all-grade ELA falling from 20.31% to 13.89% and math from 25.78% to 20.14% between 2024–25 and 2025–26 while district scores stayed nearly flat. Attendance intervention and targeted upper-grade literacy and math support appear to be the most promising levers.
