Summary

Glengarry Elementary School serves 443 students in grades PK–5 at 200 Finley Drive in Nashville, TN, as part of the Metro Nashville Public Schools district, which ranks in the 11th percentile statewide. Glengarry itself has been ranked in the 14th percentile (one star) for the past two school years—but a striking one-year jump to the 40th percentile in 2023-2024 shows the school is capable of much more than its recent results suggest.

Academically, Glengarry trails district and state averages in every core subject, with the largest gap in science (21.9% proficient versus 46.9% statewide). However, compared with other nearby elementary schools, it sits in the lower-middle of the pack rather than at the bottom. Glengarry outperforms Glenview Elementary School, Paragon Mills Elementary School, and Haywood Elementary School in math and reading, and roughly ties Rocketship United School in math. Yet John B. Whitsitt Elementary School, barely a mile away, achieves more than double Glengarry's math proficiency (62.6% versus 29.5%) while spending less per student. A grade-level pattern also stands out: 3rd graders start close to district averages, but by 5th grade math proficiency falls to just 17.8%—a 29.6-point deficit versus the state.

Glengarry's genuine strengths are attendance and funding. Chronic absenteeism is just 15.1%, below both the district (23.3%) and state (18.3%) averages, and per-student spending is high at $18,284. Yet those investments have not translated into lasting gains. The 2023-2024 surge appears tied to strong results among English Learner and Hispanic students, gains that did not hold in subsequent years. The path forward is clear: strengthen 4th and 5th grade instruction, stabilize the supports that worked during that strong year, and target resources at the student groups where progress has slipped.
