Summary

Glenn Martin Elementary School is a large PreK-8 school in Crossville, Tennessee, serving 735 students as part of the Cumberland County Schools district. The school currently ranks in the 48th percentile statewide (2 stars), a notable decline from its 3-star rating in 2021–2022, and sits near the middle of the pack among nearby elementary schools. The school's academic profile is uneven: math proficiency (44.2%) is slightly above the state average, and social studies is a clear strength at 55.3% — better than both the district and state. English Language Arts is the most pressing challenge, with only 33.2% proficiency, a 7.4-point gap from the state average and a figure that has declined steadily over the past four years.

The most encouraging news for parents is the school's outstanding work with traditionally underserved students. Low-income students rank in the 78th percentile statewide (4 stars), while special education students rank in the 69th percentile — both results that have been consistent for three straight years. Chronic absenteeism is also an asset: at 12.6%, it's well below the district (15.2%) and state (18.3%) averages, and has improved significantly since 2022–2023. Per-pupil spending is moderate at $12,465, notably less than nearby Pine View Elementary School ($15,129) and Stone Elementary School ($14,042), both of which rank below Glenn Martin overall.

The biggest red flag in the data is a pronounced dip in 3rd-grade performance: math proficiency sits at just 24.6% (state: 42.6%), ELA at 29.0%, and science at 20.3% — some of the largest gaps of any grade level. Encouragingly, 4th-grade results jump sharply, suggesting that interventions may be helping students recover after a difficult transition year. Among nearby same-district schools, South Cumberland Elementary School posts ELA proficiency nearly 20 points higher than Glenn Martin, while Crab Orchard Elementary School and Homestead Elementary School lead the district overall. For parents, Glenn Martin offers genuine strengths in social studies, math, attendance, and support for low-income and special education students — but it's worth monitoring ELA progress and the 3rd-grade transition closely.
