Summary

Mocksville Elementary is a PK–5 school in Mocksville, NC, serving 543 students in the Davie County Schools district. The school sits in the lower-middle range of North Carolina elementary schools, ranking in the 41st percentile in 2025–2026, with about 68% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. While the district overall is fairly strong, ranking 85th of 246 North Carolina districts, Mocksville itself has experienced year-to-year swings in its ranking, from the 52nd percentile in 2024–2025 back to 41st.

Reading is the school's biggest area of concern. Across grades 3–5, reading proficiency averages 43%, roughly 7 points below the district average and 13 points below the state. Third-grade reading in particular stands out, with only 37% of students proficient. Math results are more encouraging, particularly in upper grades, where both 4th grade (65.3%) and 5th grade (64.4%) math proficiency exceed the state average. Fifth-grade science is a genuine bright spot, with 76.7% of students proficient, above both district and state averages. Attendance is also a notable strength: the chronic absenteeism rate of 13.1% is well below the district average of 18.5% and the state average of 24.2%.

Within Davie County, Mocksville trails several neighboring elementary schools. Shady Grove Elementary ranks in the 87th percentile statewide, while Cornatzer Elementary and Pinebrook Elementary rank at the 59th and 48th percentiles, respectively. Schools with much higher poverty rates than Mocksville, such as Cool Spring Elementary, show that strong results are possible regardless of income levels. Subgroup data reveals an unusual pattern: students of color and low-income students perform near the state median for their groups, while White, English learner, special education, and gifted students rank below expectations.
