Summary

William R Davie Elementary is a PK–5 public school in Mocksville, NC, serving about 371 students as part of Davie County Schools. The school currently holds a 2-star rating and ranks in the 36th percentile of North Carolina elementary schools — a notable decline from the 65th percentile it earned just one year earlier, placing it below every other Davie County elementary school in its comparison group.

Compared with nearby schools, the gap is considerable. Shady Grove Elementary, roughly 12 miles away, ranks in the 87th percentile with far stronger proficiency across every grade and subject — for example, 83.1% of its third graders are proficient in math versus 49.3% at William R Davie. Closer to home, Cornatzer Elementary ranks in the 59th percentile, Pinebrook Elementary in the 48th, and Mocksville Elementary in the 41st. Academically, the standout is 4th grade, where math proficiency (71.2%) exceeds both district and state averages, while 3rd-grade reading (36.6% proficient) represents the school's biggest concern.

William R Davie does have meaningful strengths to build on. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 12.4% is well below the district rate of 18.5% and less than half the statewide rate. Special education students consistently rank in the top quarter of the state, and gifted students recently ranked in the 96th percentile. However, proficiency among economically disadvantaged students fell sharply from the 83rd to the 22nd percentile in the latest cycle, and per-student spending ($10,735) exceeds that of several nearby schools with stronger results. With low absenteeism and clear pockets of excellence, William R Davie has a solid foundation, but the latest results signal that early literacy and support for the broader student population need immediate attention.
