Summary:
Mosheim, Tennessee is served by three public schools—Mosheim Elementary School, West Greene Middle School, and West Greene High School—that form a complete K–12 pipeline within the Greene County Schools district, which ranks 42nd out of 141 districts in Tennessee. Together, these schools serve 1,603 students, with Mosheim Elementary (PK–5) the largest at 711 students, followed by West Greene High (9–12) at 494 and West Greene Middle (6–8) at 398.
Each school has its own standout strength. West Greene High School posts an impressive 98.2% graduation rate and just a 1.8% dropout rate, far better than state averages of 90.5% and 6.7%. West Greene Middle School excels in accelerated math, with 78.9% of its Algebra I students scoring proficient—well above the state's 32.3%—though its other core subjects lag behind district and state averages. Mosheim Elementary School is the strongest of the three in core academics, with 48.8% math proficiency and 51.4% third-grade math proficiency, both above state averages, but it struggles with 5th-grade ELA at just 29.3% proficiency versus 42.7% statewide.
Chronic absenteeism is a district-wide concern: all three schools exceed the state rate of 18.3%, with West Greene Middle at 23.8% and West Greene High at 24.3%. Science is also a consistent weakness across the pipeline, from elementary (41.0%) to high school Biology I (35.4% vs. 49.8% statewide). Notably, West Greene Middle School spends the most per student ($12,148) yet has the lowest math and ELA proficiency, while Mosheim Elementary School spends the least ($8,870) and posts the strongest math results. Despite these challenges, US History at West Greene High School is a bright spot at 52.7% proficiency—10 points above the state—and the district's strong graduation outcomes suggest schools prioritize keeping students on track even as academic proficiency remains an area for growth.
