Summary

Cumberland Heights Elementary School is a public school in Clarksville, TN, serving 604 students in grades PK–5 as part of the Clarksville-Montgomery County School District. It has earned a 4-star rating from Tennessee for multiple consecutive years, ranking 164th of 1,019 elementary schools statewide in 2025-26 (84th percentile) — placing it in the top tier of neighborhood elementary schools in the Clarksville area.

The school consistently outperforms its district and state by wide margins. In the most recent testing year, 57.4% of students were proficient in math (versus 42.1% districtwide and 43.0% statewide), 58.6% in English language arts (versus 42.3% and 40.6%), and 63.3% in science (versus 53.5% and 46.9%). Among nearby schools, only Spanish Immersion @ Barksdale School (a specialized magnet program) and Montgomery Central Elementary School rank higher. It posts significantly better results than Woodlawn Elementary School, Byrns Darden Elementary School, and most other nearby schools — with ELA proficiency a particular standout.

What makes this school especially notable is how well it serves all students. Its low-income and Hispanic students both rank in the 95th percentile statewide — among the top 5% of Tennessee schools for those subgroups — and special education and African American students also perform well above average. Chronic absenteeism is lower than district and state averages every year. The school is also on an upward trajectory: its statewide rank improved from 222nd in 2023-24 to 164th in 2025-26, with math and ELA proficiency rising steadily. For parents seeking a strong, equitable neighborhood school in the Clarksville area, this is an excellent choice.
