Summary

North Coffee Elementary is a public elementary school in Manchester, Tennessee, serving 349 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Coffee County School District, which is ranked 86 out of 139 districts in the state.

North Coffee Elementary consistently outperforms the Coffee County district and the state of Tennessee in proficiency rates across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 44.4% of North Coffee Elementary students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 39.9% for the district and 42.2% for the state. The school's performance is particularly strong in 4th and 5th-grade Mathematics, where proficiency rates are significantly higher than the district and state averages. North Coffee Elementary has also shown strong performance for its subgroups, ranking in the top 5% of Tennessee elementary schools for low socioeconomic status students and the top 25% for special education students.

While North Coffee Elementary is a high-performing school, it has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 8.8% in 2021-2022 to 20.2% in 2022-2023 and 18.9% in 2023-2024. This trend is higher than the state average and may be an area of concern for the school. Compared to nearby schools, North Coffee Elementary outperforms Hickerson Elementary and East Coffee Elementary, but lags behind some of the higher-performing schools in the Tullahoma and Manchester districts, such as Robert E. Lee Elementary and College Street Elementary.
