Summary

Sarah Moore Greene Magnet Technology Academy is an elementary school in Knoxville, Tennessee, serving grades PK-5 with 481 students. The school is part of the Knox County school district, which is ranked 77 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being a magnet school focused on technology, Sarah Moore Greene Magnet Technology Academy consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Tennessee elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance is particularly low for African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, as well as students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Proficiency rates in Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Science are significantly below the Knox County and Tennessee state averages, often by 20-30 percentage points or more. The school also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.9% to 21.8% over the past few years, well above the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby Spring Hill Elementary, Dogwood Elementary, and Christenberry Elementary schools generally outperform Sarah Moore Greene Magnet Technology Academy across academic measures, despite being part of the same Knox County district. This raises questions about the effectiveness of the school's magnet program and whether it is truly providing the intended educational benefits to students, especially given the school's high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, which do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes.
