Summary

College Street Elementary School serves 598 students in grades PK–5 in Manchester, TN, as part of Manchester City Schools, a district ranked 47th out of 141 across Tennessee. The school currently holds a 3-star rating and sits in the 68th percentile statewide — 322nd out of 1,019 elementary schools. Its proficiency rates in math (55.1%), English language arts (52.2%), and science (47.8%) all clear both the state and district averages by comfortable margins.

What makes College Street especially noteworthy is how it compares with nearby schools. Its ELA proficiency is the highest of all surrounding elementary schools and roughly 13 points above the local average, while math runs about 10 points above it. The one school that outpaces College Street in math is Westwood Elementary School, a same-district campus less than a mile away, but College Street returns the favor in ELA and science. The most remarkable internal result is 5th-grade math: 75.3% proficiency, the best among all neighboring schools and far above the state average of 47.4%. Fourth grade, by contrast, is a relative soft spot, with math and science dipping below state averages.

College Street also shines at supporting students who often face the greatest challenges. Special education students have ranked in the 82nd–85th percentile statewide for three straight years, and students from low-income families in the 80th–86th percentile — both earning 4-star ratings. The school achieves this while spending less than most peers ($13,426 per student), a sign of efficient resource use. Chronic absenteeism has been cut nearly in half, from 18.2% to 10.3%, though most nearby schools still post lower rates in the 6–9% range, so attendance remains a clear opportunity for even stronger results.
