Summary

Spring Hill Elementary School is a very small K-8 school in Trenton, TN, serving just 91 students as part of the Gibson County Special School District — a strong district ranked 25th out of 141 in Tennessee. For 2025-2026, the school itself ranks 248th out of 1,019 Tennessee elementary schools (76th percentile) with a 4-star rating, making it the second-highest-ranked school among its same-district neighbors behind Rutherford Elementary (82nd percentile) and ahead of Yorkville Elementary and Dyer Elementary. The school has recovered strongly from a 2022-2023 dip (40th percentile, 2 stars) and has now posted two consecutive 4-star years in the upper 70s percentile.

The school’s most distinctive pattern is a clear subject split. Math proficiency is 55.1% and science is 60.9% — both well above state averages — and science is actually the highest among the four same-district schools. However, English Language Arts (38.2%) is the lowest among those neighbors and below the state average, while social studies (45.7%) trails the district average by 26 points. Weaknesses concentrate heavily in grades 6-8: 6th grade ELA is just 18.2% proficient versus a 50.8% district average, and 8th grade social studies is 41.2% versus 70.4% district. By contrast, 3rd grade ELA is 50.0% and 4th grade ELA is 66.7%, suggesting strong early literacy that falls off sharply in the middle grades. With only 91 students, however, small cohorts can swing results dramatically from year to year.

Attendance is a genuine strength: chronic absenteeism is just 7.7%, far below the 18.3% state rate and lower than most nearby schools including Dyer (14.6%) and Newbern (12.5%). Per-pupil spending is the highest in the comparison group at $17,733, and class sizes are very small at roughly 8.5 students per teacher. The school has also made broad-based subgroup gains in recent years. Nearby Alamo Elementary demonstrates that the region can support strong literacy, posting 65.4% ELA proficiency — which highlights Spring Hill’s primary opportunity. With excellent attendance, strong math and science, and a heavily resourced small-classroom setting, the school’s next step toward becoming a top-tier regional school is clear: consistent literacy and social studies support in grades 6-8.
