Better than 91% of Tennessee middle schools

Summary

Mt. Juliet Middle School in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, serves 1,002 students in grades 6–8 as part of Wilson County Schools, a district ranked 22nd out of 141 in Tennessee. The school has been a consistent top performer, earning 5 stars in nine of the past ten years and ranking 51st out of 594 Tennessee middle schools (91st percentile). Students comfortably exceed state averages across all subjects: 59.3% proficiency in math versus 43% statewide, 48.7% in ELA versus 40.6%, 65.7% in science versus 46.9%, and 69.9% in social studies versus 51.4%.

Within Wilson County, however, Mt. Juliet is the third-ranked middle school. Gladeville Middle School (19th statewide) and West Wilson Middle School (36th statewide) both outpace it by 5 to 16 percentage points across subjects. The gap grows by 8th grade, particularly in science, where proficiency falls to 58.9% compared to Gladeville's 79.2%. The school's most notable strength is its work with special populations: special education students rank in the 90th–93rd percentile statewide, and English learners ranked 4th out of 73 schools in 2023–2024. One cautionary trend: outcomes for economically disadvantaged students have slipped from the 89th percentile to the 71st percentile over three years.

Attendance is the school's clearest area for improvement. The chronic absenteeism rate is 17.8%, above the district's 15.1% and well above Gladeville's 11.2% and West Wilson's 12.9%. On the spending side, Mt. Juliet is cost-efficient at roughly $10,739 per student—about half of what Metro Nashville Public Schools spends—while delivering far stronger results. For families, Mt. Juliet Middle is a reliable, high-performing choice, especially for students who need strong special education or English learner support. Those comparing it directly to Gladeville or West Wilson should weigh the differences in test scores and attendance, but by statewide standards, this is a very solid school.
