Summary:
The 37072 zip code area in Tennessee is home to 5 public schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 middle school, spread across two different school districts - Sumner County and Davidson County.
The standout school in this area is Madison Creek Elementary, which has consistently high performance, ranking in the top 100 elementary schools in Tennessee for the past 3 school years and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Madison Creek Elementary outperforms the Sumner County and Tennessee averages across all subject areas and grade levels. In contrast, Goodlettsville Elementary and Goodlettsville Middle, which are part of the lower-ranked Davidson County school district, have significantly lower test scores and rankings compared to the state and county averages.
Across all 5 schools, there is a concerning trend of high chronic absenteeism rates around 19%. The spending per student varies widely, from $12,391 at Madison Creek Elementary to $22,007 at Goodlettsville Elementary, but this does not seem to directly correlate with academic achievement. Similarly, the student-teacher ratios, ranging from 10.3 at Millersville Elementary to 19.7 at Goodlettsville Middle, do not appear to be a major driver of performance.
