Summary

Westwood Elementary School is a PK–5 public school in Manchester, TN, serving 558 students as part of Manchester City Schools. The school earned a statewide rank of 339 out of 1,019 elementary schools in 2025–26 (67th percentile, 3 stars), a strong one-year improvement from 491st place the year before. Westwood has held a steady 3-star rating over the past five reported years, with its best historical rank coming in 2014–15 at the 80th percentile statewide.

Westwood's signature strength is math. In 2025–26, 62.8% of students scored proficient in math—about 25 points above the district average and nearly 20 points above the state average. That leads nearby schools including College Street Elementary School (55.1%), Robert E Lee Elementary School (54.1%), and Hillsboro Elementary School (53.2%). Chronic absenteeism is also exceptionally low at 8.1% in 2024–25, less than half the state average of 18.3%, and the school has stayed below 11% even during the post-pandemic spike. Westwood also stands out for strong outcomes with historically underserved groups: low-income students rank in the 78th percentile statewide, special education students in the 80th, and English language learners in the 77th.

Where Westwood is less dominant is in reading and science. ELA proficiency sits at 44.6%—above the state average but below College Street (52.2%) and Robert E Lee (49.8%). Science proficiency is 45.6%, just below the state average and trailing several nearby schools. Per-pupil spending has risen steadily to $15,138 in 2024–25, above most area schools, and the student–teacher ratio is a reasonably low 13.1:1. The school's recent rebound in math and science, combined with strong attendance and equity outcomes, makes Westwood one of the more notable schools in the Manchester area. Its biggest opportunity is bringing ELA and science closer to its math performance, especially in the early grades.
