While the Brandon-Evansville Middle School and Brandon Elementary do not reach the same heights as the high school, they still perform well above the state average on standardized tests and provide a strong educational foundation for students. The district's relatively low student-teacher ratios, especially at the elementary and high school levels, may contribute to the schools' success in supporting student learning and achievement, even with the relatively high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
