Westview Elementary School is a public elementary school in Chattanooga, Tennessee, serving 615 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Hamilton County School District, which is ranked 87 out of 139 districts in the state.

Westview Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic proficiency, with 57.4% of students proficient in Mathematics, 66.9% in English Language Arts, and 67.1% in Science, compared to the Hamilton County averages of 39.7%, 37.1%, and 45.4%, respectively. The school has been ranked among the top 100 elementary schools in Tennessee for several years, reaching as high as 36th out of 646 schools in 2016-2017.

While Westview Elementary is a high-performing school, several nearby schools in the Hamilton County district, such as East Ridge Elementary, Spring Creek Elementary, and Harrison Elementary, have significantly lower academic proficiency rates and statewide rankings. This highlights the disparities in educational outcomes within the same district, despite relatively high per-student spending across the schools.
