Summary

The school has earned a 5-star rating every year since 2013–2014 and currently ranks 25th of 1,019 elementary schools statewide, placing it in the 98th percentile, with a best-ever ranking of 16th in 2024–2025. With just 384 students, it is roughly half the size of nearby schools like Clovercroft Elementary School (703 students) and Creekside Elementary School (780 students), yet it consistently outperforms many of its larger neighbors.
College Grove's academic strengths are especially evident in math and science. In 2025–2026, 85% of students scored proficient in math, compared to 75.1% districtwide and just 43% statewide, and science proficiency reached 79.8%, outpacing both the district and state. The school also posts impressively low chronic absenteeism at 7.1%, well below the state average of 20.2%, which likely supports its strong results. Notably, special education students at College Grove have ranked among the top 18 in the state in recent years, reaching 4th place in 2021–2022, suggesting the school is highly effective at supporting a broad range of learning needs in a smaller, more personalized environment.
The clearest opportunity for growth is upper-elementary English language arts. While overall ELA proficiency is a strong 75.6%, 5th grade ELA scores dropped to 65.3%, below the district average of 71.2% and well behind Clovercroft's 86.5%. That said, College Grove still outperforms many nearby schools, including Thompson's Station Elementary School and Bethesda Elementary School, and is far ahead of Rockvale Elementary School in neighboring Rutherford County, where math proficiency is just 62%. For families seeking a small, consistently excellent school with standout math instruction and strong support for diverse learners, College Grove is an exceptional option.
