Summary

Westmoreland Middle School serves 423 students in grades 6–8 in Westmoreland, TN, and is part of Sumner County Schools, a highly rated Tennessee district. The school currently earns a 4-star rating and ranks 126th out of 594 Tennessee middle schools (79th percentile), placing it among the strongest middle schools in the immediate region. Within its local Sumner County cluster, Westmoreland Middle School leads Portland West Middle School, Portland East Middle School, Joe Shafer Middle School, and Rucker Stewart Middle School in overall ranking.

Math is Westmoreland's clear academic strength. With 59.4% of students scoring proficient, the school outpaces the state average by more than 16 points, and 8th-grade math is particularly strong at 67.1% proficiency. Science (50.9%) and social studies (54.2%) also exceed state averages, though they trail the Sumner County Schools district averages. English language arts remains the main opportunity for improvement: 43.3% proficient is above the state average but roughly 8 points below the district. The good news is that gap has narrowed significantly in the most recent year, signaling positive momentum for Westmoreland students.

Westmoreland also stands out for strong outcomes among low-income and special education students. Attendance is another advantage — the school's 13.3% chronic absenteeism rate beats the state average and every nearby Sumner County middle school. Notably, Jim Satterfield Middle School spends less per student yet outperforms Westmoreland in every tested subject, while Westmoreland's own spending has grown to $14,362 per pupil. Overall, this is a well-regarded school with excellent math outcomes and strong support for underserved students; if it can continue closing the ELA gap, it is well positioned to climb even higher in the state rankings.
