Summary

Sycamore Elementary School is a PK-5 public school in Collierville, Tennessee, serving 580 students as part of the Collierville Schools district, the top-ranked district in the state. The school itself is a 5-star institution, ranking 100th out of 1,019 Tennessee elementary schools and landing in the 90th percentile statewide. While that rank marks a gradual slip from its 52nd-place finish in 2021-22, Sycamore remains one of the strongest elementary schools in Tennessee.

Sycamore's most impressive results come from its work with students who are often underserved elsewhere. Economically disadvantaged students at Sycamore ranked 8th out of 843 schools statewide in 2024-25, a 99th-percentile result, and the school posts consistently strong rankings across student subgroups. Chronic absenteeism is another clear strength: only 7.1% of students were chronically absent in 2024-25, less than half the state average of 18.3% and below the district's already-low 9.8% rate. Sycamore also spends more per student than any nearby school — $18,295 in 2024-25, roughly 25-36% more than Collierville peers like Crosswind Elementary and Collierville Elementary.

That high spending does not, however, translate into the highest test scores in the district. Sycamore's math proficiency of 68.2%, ELA proficiency of 64.4%, and science proficiency of 69.0% all trail the district averages, making it the lowest-performing of the five Collierville elementary schools compared here. By contrast, Crosswind Elementary posts 89.5% math proficiency. But compared with nearby Memphis-Shelby County Schools, Sycamore's results look dramatically stronger — Lowrance Elementary/Middle School, just 7 miles away, posts just 16.7% math proficiency and a 22.2% chronic absenteeism rate. Sycamore's resource-rich environment, with a student-teacher ratio around 12:1, suggests a school investing heavily in every child, and its remarkable equity outcomes may be its true differentiator.
