Summary:

The 37085 zip code is home to a single high-performing elementary school, Lascassas Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and has 611 students enrolled. Lascassas Elementary consistently ranks in the top 20% of Rutherford County elementary schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lascassas Elementary's academic performance is impressive, with proficiency rates in Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Science that significantly exceed the Rutherford County and Tennessee state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school had a 65.3% proficiency rate in Mathematics, compared to 51.7% for Rutherford County and 42.2% for the state. This high level of academic achievement may be attributed to the school's higher per-student spending of $12,395 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.8.

While Lascassas Elementary's academic performance is commendable, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 18.9% for the 2023-2024 school year is slightly higher than the state average. This is an area the school and district may want to investigate further to ensure all students have the opportunity to fully engage in their education and reach their full potential.
