Summary:
The 37692 zip code area is home to a single public elementary school, Unicoi Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 with an enrollment of 317 students. Unicoi Elementary's academic performance is mixed, with strengths in Mathematics but more variable results in English Language Arts and Science compared to the Unicoi County district and the state of Tennessee.
The school's student population is predominantly White (82.65%), with a significant Hispanic minority (16.4%) and a small percentage of students of two or more races (0.95%). Unicoi Elementary's statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating have fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 530 out of 1,008 Tennessee elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 714 out of 1,000 in 2021-2022, and from 2 stars out of 5 in the most recent years to 1 star in 2021-2022.
With a per-student spending of $11,315 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.4 for the 2022-2023 school year, further analysis is needed to understand how these resources are being utilized to support student learning and address the areas of academic weakness, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. Additionally, the school's demographic composition may warrant investigation into the educational experiences and outcomes of different student groups.
