Summary

West Wilson Middle School is a large public school serving 1,383 students in grades 6–8 in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, part of the highly rated Wilson County Schools district. The school currently ranks 36th out of 594 Tennessee middle schools, placing it in the top 6% statewide with a 5-star rating. West Wilson has shown a strong upward trend, climbing from 63rd in 2023–2024 to 41st in 2024–2025 and now 36th, returning to the high-performance level it enjoyed before the pandemic. Students score well above state averages in every tested subject, with particularly strong results in social studies (75.4% proficient) and science (68.9% proficient).

Compared to nearby schools, West Wilson outperforms Mt. Juliet Middle School, its closest district neighbor, in every subject, including math (64.2% vs. 59.3%), English language arts (52.1% vs. 48.7%), science, and social studies. It also has much lower chronic absenteeism (12.9% vs. 17.8%). However, Gladeville Middle School, another Wilson County school about 6.6 miles away, edges out West Wilson in all subjects despite serving about 400 fewer students.
