Summary

East Nashville Middle is a public middle school serving grades 5-8 in the Davidson County school district. With 285 students, it is a relatively small school compared to some of the nearby middle schools. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of East Nashville Middle's academic performance has been a concern, with the school earning a 0 or 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, indicating it is performing below average compared to other middle schools in the state.

One of the key issues at East Nashville Middle is significantly lower proficiency rates across all subject areas and grade levels compared to the Davidson County and Tennessee averages. For example, in 2024-2025, only 12.5% of students were proficient in math, compared to 31.9% in the county and 42.2% statewide. The school's performance is especially low in English Language Arts, with only 8.5% proficient compared to 31.2% in the county and 38.9% in Tennessee. Additionally, East Nashville Middle has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.9% to 27.8% over the past few years, which is notably higher than the district and state averages.

When comparing East Nashville Middle to other middle schools in the surrounding area, it is clear the school is an outlier in terms of academic performance. Schools like Meigs Middle and Rose Park Middle, which are also in the Davidson County district, significantly outperform East Nashville Middle across all subject areas and grade levels. Addressing the key challenges the school faces, such as attendance and achievement gaps, will be critical to improving outcomes for its students.
