Summary

Westmeade Elementary School is a K-5 public school in Nashville, TN, serving 429 students as part of Metro Nashville Public Schools.

Westmeade ranks in the 32nd percentile of Tennessee elementary schools, meaning it performs above its district average in math and English language arts, but still trails state averages. It is not a failing school — its proficiency rates are roughly 20–30 points above nearby schools like Cockrill Elementary School and Park Avenue Elementary School, which rank in the 2nd and 4th percentiles. However, it lags far behind highly successful neighbors such as Sylvan Park Elementary School and Julia Green Elementary School, where proficiency rates in math, reading, and science often reach 75–85%. Its closest comparable school, Gower Elementary School, exceeds Westmeade's scores by a few points in every subject and has a lower chronic absenteeism rate, making Gower a useful benchmark for families.

One of Westmeade's most distinctive patterns is that boys consistently score higher than girls — the opposite of the typical elementary school trend — with male students ranking around the 50th percentile statewide in recent years, while female students ranked in the 30th percentile. Another concern is a sharp drop in 5th-grade scores: only 27% of 5th graders met math standards, compared to nearly 40% in 3rd and 4th grades, and reading scores fell by 15 points from 4th to 5th grade. Chronic absenteeism has improved to 19.4%, below the district average, but is still more than double the rate at high-performing neighboring schools. Science scores have also declined steadily over the past three years. Westmeade spends about $17,892 per student — more than several higher-performing nearby schools — suggesting that money alone is not driving outcomes, and that targeted attention to 5th-grade instruction, science curriculum, and support for economically disadvantaged students could help the school move closer to its stronger neighbors.
