Summary

E.E. Jeter Elementary/Middle is a public school in Millington, Tennessee, serving 369 students in grades PK-8 as part of the Memphis-Shelby County Schools district.

E.E. Jeter Elementary/Middle stands out as a relatively high-performing school within its district, consistently ranking in the top 50% of Tennessee elementary schools over the past several years. The school's performance on state assessments is generally higher than the district and state averages, particularly in Mathematics and Science. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's Mathematics proficiency rate of 31.7% was significantly higher than the district (22.6%) and state (42.2%) averages. E.E. Jeter Elementary/Middle also performs well in certain student subgroups, such as Gifted and Talented students, where it ranked 2nd out of 7 Tennessee elementary schools in 2018-2019.

Compared to nearby schools in the same district, E.E. Jeter Elementary/Middle generally outperforms them on academic measures, such as Mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency rates. However, the nearby charter schools, such as Memphis STEM Academy and Compass Community School Frayser Campus, tend to have higher academic performance than E.E. Jeter Elementary/Middle. The school's high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.9% to 29.5%, are a concern and may be impacting its overall academic performance, presenting an opportunity for the school and district to address the root causes and improve student outcomes.
