Summary:

Mike Davis Elementary School is a public elementary school in Naples, Florida, serving 574 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Collier School District, which is ranked 14th out of 68 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

While Mike Davis Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (66.9%) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 42.48% to 78.5%, it has also experienced a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.9% in 2018-2019 to 16.9% in 2022-2023 - notably higher than the 0.0% to 22.6% range of its neighbors, such as Gulf Coast Charter Academy South and Poinciana Elementary School. Additionally, Mike Davis Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency, with rates 5-20 percentage points lower.

Contributing factors may include the school's very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 71.43% to 93.52% over the past few years - significantly higher than the 15.6% to 78.02% range of surrounding schools. Despite this, Mike Davis Elementary has the highest spending per student among the nearby schools, at $16,011 in 2022-2023, compared to $9,540 to $17,784 per student at other local schools. Addressing the school's challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism and underperformance, will require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique context and resources available to support student success.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
