Summary

Luttrell Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Luttrell, Tennessee, serving 341 students as part of Union County Schools, a district that ranks in the bottom 12% of Tennessee school systems.

Luttrell is a low-performing school, currently ranking at the 22nd percentile statewide — a significant drop from its 2023-24 peak at the 40th percentile. While the school outperforms its own district average in math and English language arts, it still trails state proficiency rates by 6 to 18 percentage points. The picture becomes even more striking when you compare Luttrell to nearby schools just a few miles away. Corryton Elementary School, only 4.1 miles away, posts math and ELA proficiency rates of 60.2% and 65.0% — roughly 35 and 30 points higher than Luttrell — even though Luttrell spends more per student. Even within Union County, Sharps Chapel Elementary School and Big Ridge Elementary School both rank in the 52nd–53rd percentile, far ahead of Luttrell’s 22nd percentile.

One of the clearest warning signs is chronic absenteeism, which has climbed every year since 2020-21 and now sits at 21.4% — above both the district and state averages and much higher than stronger-performing schools like Corryton (11.3%) and Joppa Elementary School (15.4%). There are also bright spots, however: Luttrell’s 3rd grade ELA scores (45.5% proficient) beat the state average, and its 5th grade math scores (37.5%) far exceed the district average. The school has also made meaningful gains with economically disadvantaged students, who now perform near the statewide median. If Luttrell can reduce absenteeism and replicate the success of its strongest grades, there is a plausible path back to the 40th-percentile performance it achieved just two years ago.
