Summary

Westmoreland Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Westmoreland, TN, serving 464 students as part of Sumner County Schools — a district ranked in the 77th percentile statewide. The school itself, however, ranks 578th out of 1,019 Tennessee elementary schools (43rd percentile, 2 stars) for 2025–2026. Math (43.6%) and ELA (41.3%) proficiency are roughly at the state average, but both trail the district by significant margins. The school has also trended downward: it sat at the 79th percentile statewide in 2018–2019 and has declined steadily since.

Science and attendance are the biggest concerns. Science proficiency sits at 38.2% — 19 points below the Sumner County average and below most nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism is 18.4%, triple the rate at nearby Westside Elementary School (6.7%) and more than double that of North Sumner Elementary School (8.8%). A clear 4th-grade dip also appears across all subjects, with 4th-grade math (34.7%) far below the same grade at North Sumner (64.3%) and Clyde Riggs Elementary School (56.3%). The comparison to Westside — a school in the same town, five miles away, in a lower-ranked district (Macon County Schools) — is instructive: Westside outperforms Westmoreland in every subject despite serving a similar community.

There are bright spots worth noting. Westmoreland ranks at the 67th percentile statewide for low-socioeconomic-status students and the 60th percentile for special education students — both well above the school's overall ranking. Spending per student ($14,303) is moderate; nearby schools that spend more, like J W Wiseman Elementary School, post weaker results, while lower-spending schools like Westside outperform. This suggests that school culture and targeted support matter more than budget alone. The clearest levers for improvement are attendance and science instruction, and the school's proximity to high-performing peers like Bethpage Elementary School shows what's possible in the same community.
