Summary

Una Elementary School in Nashville, TN, serves 796 students in grades PK–5 and is part of Metro Nashville Public Schools. Academically, Una is currently one of the lowest-performing elementary schools in the state, ranking in the 5th percentile with a 0-star rating, a sharp decline from its 29th-percentile rank in 2017–18. In the most recent TNReady results, only 21.6% of students were proficient in math, 13.3% in ELA, and 15.5% in science—well below state averages of 43%, 40.6%, and 46.9%, respectively.

Compared to nearby schools, Una’s ELA proficiency is the lowest among its immediate neighbors, and its math and science scores are only slightly above Eagle View Elementary School. Schools just a few miles away demonstrate that better outcomes are possible: KIPP Antioch College Prep Elementary School posts 54.6% ELA proficiency and 46.4% math proficiency, while Cedar Grove Elementary School exceeds Una by roughly 25 points in math and 28 points in ELA. Within the same district, Cane Ridge Elementary School and Mt. View Elementary School nearly double Una’s math proficiency. Una’s chronic absenteeism rate of 21.7% is also higher than several high-performing neighbors, including KIPP (6.7%), Cedar Grove (8.7%), and LaVergne Lake Elementary School (11.2%). Per-pupil spending at Una ($16,880) is comparable to or higher than these better-performing schools, indicating that funding alone does not explain the outcomes.

Subgroup effectiveness at Una is weak across nearly every student group, with rankings in the 3rd to 17th percentile statewide. ELA is an especially serious red flag: only 13.3% of students are on grade level in reading and writing, and in 3rd grade, just 10.5% are proficient compared to 44.9% statewide. Grade-level patterns are inconsistent, with 4th grade showing relative strength (26.6% math) while 3rd and 5th grades lag well behind. The school’s decline is not a one-year blip—it has fallen steadily over six years. For parents, the clearest priorities are improving early literacy, addressing chronic absenteeism, and ensuring consistent, effective instruction across all grades.
