Ellendale Elementary consistently performs above the state and district averages in TNReady assessments, with particularly strong proficiency rates in Mathematics (55.9%) and English Language Arts (52.5%) in the 2024-2025 school year. The school's 3rd grade students excel, with 60.9% proficient in Mathematics and 64.5% proficient in English Language Arts.

While Ellendale Elementary outperforms most nearby schools in the Bartlett District, including Altruria Elementary, Bartlett Elementary School, Rivercrest Elementary, and Oak Elementary, the school's rising chronic absenteeism and declining performance in special education warrant further investigation and targeted interventions to ensure all students receive the support they need to thrive.
