Summary:
The 37032 zip code area in Tennessee is home to two schools - Jo Byrns High School and Jo Byrns Elementary School, both part of the Robertson County school district. While the district as a whole is ranked 104 out of 139 in the state, the elementary school appears to be the standout performer, outranking the high school on several key metrics.
Jo Byrns Elementary School ranks in the top 50% of Tennessee elementary schools, compared to Jo Byrns High School ranking in the bottom 25% of high schools. The elementary school also outperforms the high school in proficiency rates across Math, English Language Arts, and Science. Additionally, Jo Byrns Elementary spends more per student ($17,018) than the high school ($13,654), which may contribute to its stronger academic outcomes.
However, both schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates around 19%, well above the state average. Additionally, both schools struggle with low proficiency rates in core subjects like Math and Algebra, particularly at the high school level. These findings suggest the need for the Robertson County school district to closely examine the factors driving the performance gap between the two schools and implement targeted interventions to improve outcomes, especially at the secondary level.
