Summary

Davey Elementary is a K–5 school in Eau Claire, WI, serving 332 students at 3000 Starr Ave within the Eau Claire Area School District. For 2025–2026, it ranks 422nd of 1,039 Wisconsin schools—59th percentile with 3 stars—above the district’s 48th percentile and 2 stars, though below its 2021–2022 peak. Attendance is a major strength: chronic absenteeism is 5.5%, far below the district’s 16.4% and state’s 17.3%, and lower than most nearby schools, including Manz Elementary, Northwoods Elementary, Longfellow Elementary, and Lakeshore Elementary. Its free/reduced-lunch rate is 32.23%, the lowest among same-district nearby schools, and it spends $16,304 per student—less than most nearby schools—with a 12.5 student–teacher ratio.

Math is the clearest academic strength. On 2025–2026 Forward Exam results, it is above both district and state in grades 3, 4, and 5 math, with a grade-level average of about 61.3%, versus roughly 54.9% for the district and 53.1% for the state. That puts it second among nearby schools, behind only Manz Elementary. ELA is solid but mid-pack: its average is about 57.0%, essentially matching the district and above the state, but it trails Manz Elementary, Chippewa Valley Montessori Charter School, Northwoods Elementary, and Roosevelt Elementary. In Grade 4, social studies is 66.07% and science is 55.36%—above state but below district. It outranks Sherman Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary, Flynn Elementary, Longfellow Elementary, Locust Lane Elementary, and Lakeshore Elementary, while trailing Manz Elementary, Chippewa Valley Montessori Charter School, Northwoods Elementary, and Altoona Intermediate.

The school’s overall above-average profile masks uneven subgroup effectiveness. Low-income students have ranked around the 30th percentile for three straight years, and special education students fell from the 64th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 30th in 2025–2026. This suggests some student populations may not be benefiting equally from the school’s strengths. Overall, Davey is a solidly above-average option with strong math, excellent attendance, relatively low economic disadvantage, and modest spending. Its improvement priorities are raising ELA and social studies/science relative to district peers and addressing gaps for low-income and special education students.
