Summary

Spanish Immersion @ Barksdale is an exceptional elementary school located in Clarksville, Tennessee that serves 270 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. As part of the Montgomery County school district, this school consistently outperforms state and local averages in academic proficiency across all subject areas and grade levels.

In the 2024-2025 school year, Spanish Immersion @ Barksdale had an impressive 84.2% proficiency rate in Mathematics, far surpassing the 41% rate for Montgomery County and 42.2% for the state. The school has also been ranked among the top 25 elementary schools in Tennessee, earning a prestigious 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. This exceptional performance extends to specific student subgroups as well, with the school ranking 32nd out of 986 for female students and 13th out of 984 for male students.

The school's unique Spanish Immersion program, small student-teacher ratio, and relatively high per-student spending likely contribute to its outstanding academic outcomes. When compared to nearby elementary schools in the district, such as Sango Elementary, Spanish Immersion @ Barksdale stands out as a high-performing outlier, consistently maintaining its exceptional performance over the past few years. The success of this school could have important implications for the Montgomery County district, potentially leading to the replication or expansion of the Spanish Immersion program to other schools.
