Summary:
The 37814 zip code area in Tennessee is home to 6 schools, including 5 elementary schools and 1 middle school, with no high schools or alternative schools in the data set. The schools in this area show a mix of performance, with Alpha Elementary and Manley Elementary standing out as top-performing schools, while Fairview Marguerite struggles to meet proficiency standards.
Alpha Elementary ranks in the top 169 out of 1,008 Tennessee elementary schools and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, with the highest proficiency rates in mathematics, English language arts, and science compared to the other schools in the data set. Manley Elementary also stands out, ranking in the top 349 out of 1,008 Tennessee elementary schools and having a 3-star rating, with strong proficiency rates, particularly in mathematics. In contrast, Fairview Marguerite struggles, with proficiency rates well below the Hamblen County and Tennessee averages.
The data also reveals significant disparities in student performance, with the top-performing schools outpacing the lower-performing schools by over 30 percentage points in some subject areas. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and resources may be contributing to the differences in student outcomes. Additionally, the racial composition of the schools appears to be correlated with their performance, raising questions about potential equity and access issues that may be impacting student achievement. The middle school, Meadowview Middle School, generally underperforms compared to the elementary schools, indicating a need to focus on the transition from elementary to middle school and identify ways to better support students during this critical period.
