Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $13,048 at Marshall Elementary, the school has consistently underperformed compared to the Marshall County and Tennessee state averages in proficiency rates for TNReady Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Science assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Marshall Elementary's proficiency rates were 41.1% in Mathematics, 31% in English Language Arts, and 33.2% in Science, while the Marshall County averages were 43.4%, 35.4%, and 50.3%, respectively, and the Tennessee state averages were 42.2%, 38.9%, and 46.1%. The school's performance has been particularly low in English Language Arts, where it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Tennessee elementary schools.
Additionally, Marshall Elementary has struggled to support the academic achievement of certain student subgroups, with lower rankings for male students and African American students compared to other student groups. The school also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.2% to 20.2% over the past few school years, which is significantly higher than the state average. By addressing these areas and learning from the successes of nearby high-performing schools, such as Chapel Hill Elementary and Cornersville Elementary, Marshall Elementary can work towards improving educational outcomes for its students.
