Summary

Northeast Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Clarksville, TN, serving 722 students in the Clarksville-Montgomery County Schools district. The school currently ranks in the 52nd percentile statewide — 487th out of 1,019 Tennessee elementary schools — earning a 3-star rating overall. That places it squarely in the middle of the pack, though slightly above a few nearby schools like Byrns Darden Elementary School and Ringgold Elementary School. With a student-teacher ratio of about 16.8:1, Northeast is also somewhat smaller than most neighboring elementary schools, several of which enroll 900–1,200 students.

Where Northeast really stands out is English language arts. The school has beaten both the district and state averages in ELA for three consecutive years — most recently posting 44.3% proficiency versus 42.3% for the district and 40.6% statewide — and it runs nearly 8 points above the average of its nearby school peers. Grade-level results from 2025–2026 show an unusual pattern: 3rd grade scores trail district and state averages by a wide margin, while 4th grade scores are exceptionally strong, with 60.2% ELA and 52% math proficiency, both well above district and state numbers. The school also posts notably strong subgroup rankings for Hispanic and African American students, a positive sign of equitable outcomes relative to statewide norms.

Attendance is a clear bright spot. Chronic absenteeism ran 13.2% in 2024–2025, better than the district's 15.1% and the state's 18.3%. The school also spends generously, at $13,313 per student, though higher spending doesn't automatically mean higher scores — Rossview Elementary School spends less and outperforms. Two concerns stand out: special education results have been volatile, improving from the 7th to 41st percentile over two years but still below the school's overall rank, and low-income students consistently score slightly below the school's overall percentile. Northeast also hasn't returned to its pre-2022 peak, when it ranked in the 74th percentile with 4 stars.
