Summary

Doak Elementary School serves 570 students in grades PK–5 in Greeneville, TN, as part of Greene County Schools. In the 2025–2026 school year, Doak ranked in the 62nd percentile of Tennessee elementary schools, earning a 3-star rating, and it has shown steady improvement since a pandemic-era dip. The school spends about $10,987 per student, less than most nearby elementary schools, and maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 13.3.

Doak’s biggest academic strength is math, with 53.7% of students meeting state standards, compared to 50.5% for the district and 43.0% statewide. English language arts has improved sharply over the past few years, climbing from 35.3% in 2022–2023 to 44.8% in 2025–2026, now above both the district and state averages. Science, however, lags behind the district (47.8% vs. 50.9%), even though it remains just above the state average. Looking at individual grades, fourth graders stand out with well-above-average scores in all three subjects, while fifth graders fall behind district and state averages in math, ELA, and science. Chronic absenteeism is a bright spot: only 10.9% of students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, compared to 16.4% for the district and 18.3% statewide. When compared to nearby schools, Doak sits in the upper-middle tier—above Mosheim Elementary School and Chuckey Elementary School, but below Camp Creek Elementary School and Tusculum View Elementary School. It also posts higher math proficiency than C Hal Henard Elementary School but trails that school in ELA and science.

One of the most encouraging trends is the progress made by students from low-income families: their statewide ranking jumped from the 22nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 73rd percentile in 2025–2026. However, special education outcomes have dropped sharply, falling from a 4-star rating to a 1-star rating in the same period, which is a red flag that deserves immediate attention. Doak also shows a gender gap in some years, with girls outperforming boys in 2024–2025, though the pattern reversed in 2022–2023. Overall, Doak delivers competitive results at a lower cost than most higher-ranked peers, making it a relatively efficient choice for families. If the school can replicate its fourth-grade success in other grades and stabilize special education support, it has the potential to move into the top tier of East Tennessee elementary schools.
