Summary

Toone Elementary School is a small PK-8 school in Toone, Tennessee, serving 217 students in a rural area within the Hardeman County Schools district. Despite its district's low statewide standing, Toone Elementary School ranks 492nd out of 1,019 Tennessee elementary schools — the 52nd percentile — earning a 3-star rating. The school outperforms its district in every tested subject, with ELA proficiency at 42.7% versus 29.6% districtwide, science at 46.8% versus 32.2%, social studies at 44.6% versus 28.9%, and math at 33.1% versus 24.5%. It also spends less per student ($13,218) than most district peers while achieving better results.

Among Hardeman County schools, only Hornsby Elementary School ranks higher; Toone outranks Bolivar Elementary School, Middleton Elementary School, and especially Whiteville Elementary School, a same-sized school in the bottom 5% statewide. However, nearby Chester County Schools are substantially stronger: East Chester Elementary School, Chester County Middle School, and W Chester Elementary School all rank in the 77th–84th percentile. Toone's chronic absenteeism rate of 14.2% is well below the district rate of 21.5% and improved sharply from the prior year.

Toone's biggest strengths are its 6th grade, where ELA (63.2%) and science (68.4%) far exceed state averages, and its effectiveness with low-income students, ranking in the 58th percentile statewide for that subgroup. Its biggest challenges are math — just 33.1% proficient overall, dipping to 13.3% in 7th grade — and a sharp decline in social studies, which fell from roughly 20 points above the state in 2022-23 to below the state today. Still, the school's jump from the 36th to 52nd percentile in one year shows clear momentum worth watching.
