Summary

Liberty Elementary School is a PK–4 school in Franklin, TN, serving 435 students as part of the Franklin Special School District. The school ranks 116th out of 1,019 elementary schools statewide — an 89th percentile result — with strong math and English language arts scores of 67.8% and 64.7% proficiency, both above district and state averages. Science is the one subject where Liberty trails its own district, with 62.4% proficiency versus the FSSD average of 66.8%, a gap that has persisted in most recent years.

Within FSSD, Liberty ranks third among five comparable schools, behind Moore Elementary School and Franklin Elementary School, but ahead of Johnson Elementary School and Poplar Grove K-4 School. Nearby Williamson County Schools — including Oak View Elementary School, Hunters Bend Elementary School, Trinity Elementary School, Walnut Grove Elementary School, Winstead Elementary School, and Pearre Creek Elementary School — all rank higher, mostly in the 96th to 98th percentiles. Liberty spends about $20,579 per student, which is lower than several FSSD peers but higher than Williamson County schools that post even higher scores. Attendance is a clear strength, with a chronic absenteeism rate of just 5.5% compared to the state average of 18.9%.

Looking at grade-level detail, math improves from 3rd to 4th grade, but 4th grade ELA and science trail the district by roughly five percentage points. Subgroup data point to the school's biggest opportunity: outcomes vary significantly across student groups, with English Learners and Hispanic students not yet reaching the same benchmarks as their peers. This suggests instructional supports may not yet be reaching all student groups equally. Families will find Liberty to be a well-run school with strong foundations in math and reading, excellent attendance, and clear room to grow in science and in ensuring every student thrives.
