Summary

Wilson Elementary is a public school serving grades PK-8 in Crawford, Tennessee, part of the Overton County School District. The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past decade, currently ranking 298 out of 1,009 Tennessee elementary schools with a 4-star rating.

Wilson Elementary outperforms the Overton County district and the state of Tennessee in several academic areas, including mathematics and science proficiency. The school also has a higher percentage of low socioeconomic status students who perform well, ranking 66th out of 858 Tennessee elementary schools in this category. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate, although decreasing, remains higher than the state average and could be an area of focus for improvement.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Allons Elementary and Rickman Elementary, both in the Overton County district, perform similarly to or better than Wilson Elementary in some academic areas. Schools in neighboring districts, such as Pleasant Hill Elementary and Northeast Elementary, also outperform Wilson Elementary in certain metrics. While Wilson Elementary is a strong-performing school, there are still opportunities for improvement, particularly in English Language Arts proficiency.
