Summary

Westview Elementary School is a PK–5 public school in Chattanooga, Tennessee, serving 631 students and standing out as one of the top-performing elementary schools in Hamilton County Schools. The school consistently ranks in the top 10–12% of Tennessee elementary schools, earning a 4-star rating and ranking 115th out of 1,019 schools statewide for 2025–2026. With proficiency rates far above district and state averages—64.1% in math, 70.4% in English language arts, and 61.8% in science compared to district averages of 40.0%, 38.3%, and 46.6%—Westview delivers strong academics across the board.

One of Westview's standout strengths is attendance. Only 7.8% of students are chronically absent, about one-third of the district (17.1%) and state (18.3%) rates. The school also excels at serving students with special needs, ranking in the 90th percentile statewide for this subgroup. Westview's ELA scores improve as students progress—from 65.3% proficiency in 3rd grade to 74.3% in 5th grade—reflecting strong literacy development. Among nearby schools, Westview has the highest ELA proficiency, ahead of Wallace A. Smith Elementary School (67.9%) and Apison Elementary School (63.9%), and far above East Brainerd Elementary School (35.6%).

Westview is also notably cost-efficient, spending $16,249 per student—less than nearby schools like Woodmore Elementary School ($21,068) and Barger Academy of Fine Arts ($20,788) while producing better results. A few areas deserve attention: science proficiency has declined steadily from 71.0% in 2022–2023 to 61.8% currently, and Hispanic students experienced a significant one-year drop in state rankings. Low-income students perform near the state average but below Westview's overall level. Even with these caveats, Westview remains one of the strongest elementary options in the Chattanooga area and a clear outperformer relative to its district and nearby peers.
