Summary

Trousdale County Elementary is a public elementary school located in Hartsville, Tennessee, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 693 students. The school is part of the Trousdale County School District, which is ranked 11th out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Trousdale County Elementary has consistently ranked in the top 30% of Tennessee elementary schools over the past several years, with strong academic performance, particularly in Mathematics. The school's proficiency rates on TNReady assessments generally exceed the state average, and it outperforms nearby schools like Defeated Elementary, Sam Houston Elementary, and Tuckers Crossroads Elementary. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rates are higher than the state average, which may be impacting its overall performance.

While Trousdale County Elementary's academic achievement is strong, the school should continue to focus on addressing achievement gaps among specific student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and students with low socioeconomic status, to ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed. By analyzing its data, identifying areas for improvement, and implementing targeted strategies, the school can maintain and enhance its academic excellence.

What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, October 29, 2022

To say we are embarrassed and humiliated to be apart of this run down school is an understatement. The kindergarteners are more intelligent, thought provoking, and ethically correct than the majority of the entire staff. We are ashamed to go here and certainly don’t trust any of the staff to do what’s best for our kids. Huge embarrassment! Close Quote
