Summary

Highland Park Elementary is a public elementary school in Lenoir City, Tennessee, serving 388 students in grades PK-4 and part of the Loudon County School District. This high-performing school consistently ranks among the top 20-30% of elementary schools in Tennessee, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Highland Park Elementary excels academically, with proficiency rates in Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Science that significantly exceed state and district averages. The school's performance is particularly strong for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the top 10% of Tennessee elementary schools for this subgroup. However, the school's performance for Hispanic students and male students is relatively weaker, ranking in the bottom 30-40% of Tennessee elementary schools for these subgroups. While Highland Park Elementary outperforms nearby Steekee Elementary and Loudon Elementary, the nearby Eaton Elementary school performs similarly or even better in many academic metrics.

One area of concern for Highland Park Elementary is its higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to the state and district averages, ranging from 12.0% to 20.2% over the past few years. The school also has a higher per-student spending, ranging from $10,724 to $13,623 over the past few years. Overall, Highland Park Elementary is a consistently high-performing school, but the school and district may need to address the chronic absenteeism issue to ensure continued academic success for all students.
