Summary

Fairview Elementary School serves 469 students in grades PK-5 in Fairview, TN, and is part of Williamson County Schools, one of Tennessee's highest-performing districts. The school itself earns 4 stars and ranks at the 82nd percentile statewide, with 56.3% of students proficient in math, 56.8% in ELA, and 62.9% in science—well above state averages of 43%, 40.6%, and 46.9%. However, it trails its own district by significant margins: math proficiency is 18.8 points below the district average, ELA is 13.7 points below, and science is 14 points below.

Compared with nearby schools, Fairview generally outperforms most non-Williamson County neighbors, including White Bluff Elementary School, Pegram Elementary Fine Arts Magnet School, and East Hickman Intermediate School, and is roughly comparable to Stuart Burns Elementary School and Harpeth Valley Elementary School. Within its own district, however, Pearre Creek Elementary School and Hillsboro Elementary/ Middle School are clearly ahead across all subjects, while Westwood Elementary School beats Fairview in math. The most noticeable internal weak spot is 3rd grade math, where only 40% of students are proficient—below the state average and far below the district's 76.6%. By contrast, 4th and 5th grade math are much stronger, suggesting the issue may be tied to the 3rd grade transition or a specific cohort. Attendance is a clear strength: chronic absenteeism is just 7.3%, far below the state rate of 18.3% and matching the district's 7.4%.

Fairview spends about $17,551 per student, more than several nearby schools including Pearre Creek ($15,011), Westwood ($15,835), and Kingston Springs Elementary School ($12,796), yet this higher spending does not translate into top-tier results among district peers. The most urgent concern is the recent decline in outcomes for some student groups: effectiveness for low-income students fell from the 63rd to the 20th percentile, and for special education students from the 77th to the 47th percentile. While the school has recovered from its pandemic-era attendance spike and posted improved overall test scores, these widening equity gaps suggest not all students are benefiting equally from the school's gains. Bottom line: Fairview is a solid, above-average school with strong attendance, but it has not yet returned to its former 5-star status, and parents should pay attention to 3rd grade math support and how the school serves all of its learners.
