Summary

Morrison Elementary School serves approximately 381 students in grades PK–8 in Morrison, Tennessee, and is part of Warren County Schools, a district ranked 116th out of 141 districts statewide. Morrison currently sits in the 22nd percentile of Tennessee elementary schools with a 1-star rating, making it the lowest-ranked school among all nearby schools in the comparison group. It trails same-district peers like Centertown Elementary (62nd percentile) and Irving College Elementary (42nd percentile), as well as every neighboring school from surrounding districts.

Academically, Morrison's proficiency rates fall below both the district and state averages in every core subject. In math, 29.4% of students are proficient compared to 43.0% statewide; in English language arts, 31.4% versus 40.6%; in science, 33.5% versus 46.9%; and in social studies, 40.9% versus 51.4%. However, the overall numbers hide a very uneven grade-level picture. Fourth graders are a genuine bright spot, with math proficiency at 53.8% and ELA at 48.7%, both above state averages. Eighth graders also perform well in math, science, and social studies. On the other hand, only 13.5% of third graders are proficient in math (versus 42.6% statewide), 5th grade science sits at just 16.2%, and 6th graders struggle across every subject, especially social studies at 14.3% versus 50.7% statewide.

One clear strength is attendance: Morrison's chronic absenteeism rate is just 9.5%, far better than the district rate of 13.8% and the state rate of 18.3%, showing that students are consistently coming to school. The school spends $12,764 per student, less than most nearby schools, though Centertown achieves significantly stronger results while spending even less. Morrison's state ranking has declined steadily over the past several years, falling from the 55th percentile in 2017–2018 to the 22nd percentile today. For parents, the story is mixed: strong attendance and standout results in 4th and 8th grade demonstrate the school's potential, but the overall downward trend suggests Morrison needs targeted instructional improvements to reverse its recent slide.
