Summary

Northeast Middle School is a public middle school in Clarksville, TN, serving 1,074 students in grades 6–8 as part of the Clarksville-Montgomery County School District, a 4-star district. The school currently holds a 2-star rating, ranking 337th out of 594 Tennessee middle schools (43rd percentile) — a steep fall from 2017–2018, when it ranked 91st in the state (84th percentile, 4 stars).

Academically, Northeast trails district and state averages in most subjects. Math proficiency is 28.7% (vs. 42.1% district and 43.0% state), while ELA proficiency is 25.9% (vs. 42.3% and 40.6%). Science (41.9%) and social studies (51.2%) also lag the district, though social studies is near the state average. Nearby Rossview Middle School and Richview Middle School — both in the 88th percentile — post math and ELA proficiency rates roughly 20 points higher. Grade-level data raise further concern: ELA proficiency falls from 31.1% in 6th grade to 18.4% in 8th grade, far below the district's 31.6% 8th-grade rate.

There are bright spots. English Language Learner students rank in the 91st percentile statewide, and special education students rank near the middle of the state. Algebra I students score 85.7% proficient, though below district (93.8%) and state (88.3%) 8th-grade averages. However, low-income students rank in the 26th percentile and military-connected students in the 14th percentile — a concern given the school's proximity to Fort Campbell. Chronic absenteeism (15.0%) matches the district average and beats the state average (18.3%). At $12,646 per student, the school's spending is higher than most nearby schools, including higher-performing Rossview ($12,105) and Richview ($11,675), yet outcomes lag — suggesting the school may need to re-examine how resources are allocated.

Open Quote Great school, the teachers are nice, and the hallways are clean from any trash. One thing I might add is that fights rarely happen at this school. People are well behaved and everyone is happy! It's a overall great school! GO NEMS!! Close Quote

Open Quote In the 6 months my child has gone here we have experienced bullying by a teacher and threats to my child from a guidance counselor. The guidance counselor has been unwilling to provide my child with ADD the opportunities needed for academic success and has now introduced fear and intimidation to the equasion by threatening my child if I challenge her further on the shortcomings we are experiencing. I have and continue to experience deception and dishonesty from this counselor and have experienced an attitude of apathy and disinterest from the administration with all of these problems.

Open Quote This is a wonderful school. The teachers are so nice and caring for the students. I love how the principals speak to the children and actually get to know them unlike Rossview Middle School. Close Quote
