Summary

Erin Elementary is a public elementary school located in Erin, Tennessee, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 367 students. The school is part of the Houston County School District, which is ranked 129 out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Erin Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Tennessee elementary schools, with a ranking between 654-889 out of 983-1020 schools over the past 8 years. The school's performance on TNReady assessments is significantly below the state and county averages across all grades and subjects, with proficiency rates in Mathematics (24.1%), English Language Arts (25.3%), and Science (25.3%) well below the state averages. Erin Elementary's performance is particularly weak in 3rd and 5th grade assessments, with proficiency rates often below 20% in these grades. Despite relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, the school has not been able to translate these resources into improved academic outcomes.

Comparison to nearby schools suggests that Erin Elementary is an outlier in its district, with other schools in the region performing significantly better on academic assessments. For example, Tennessee Ridge Elementary, the closest school to Erin Elementary (5.54 miles away), performs significantly better on academic assessments, with proficiency rates often 10-20 percentage points higher. Schools in the Montgomery County and Stewart County districts, which are further away from Erin Elementary, also outperform Erin Elementary on academic assessments, with several schools ranking in the top half of Tennessee elementary schools.
