Summary:
Zip code 37134 contains exactly one school: Lakeview Elementary School, a PK-8 school in New Johnsonville, Tennessee, serving 359 students as the only public school option in the area for both elementary and middle school students. Because it serves grades PK through 8, Lakeview is the sole educational pathway for this community within Humphreys County Schools, and students must leave the zip code after 8th grade since there are no high schools in the area. The school has shown impressive improvement, jumping from the 28th percentile statewide in 2024-2025 to the 48th percentile in 2025-2026, moving from a 1-star to a 2-star rating.
Lakeview's greatest academic strength is mathematics, with 47.5% proficiency overall compared to 43.0% statewide, and its 4th grade math results are extraordinary at 80.6% proficiency—nearly double the district rate of 40.5%. Social Studies is also a strong subject at 53.7% proficiency, beating both the district (43.8%) and the state (51.4%). The school improved in every subject year over year, with math jumping 14.5 points and science improving 11.1 points. Chronic absenteeism is notably low at 15.2%, better than the district (19.9%) and state (18.3%) averages, which is a positive sign for school culture and engagement.
The biggest concern is English Language Arts, where Lakeview's 30.8% proficiency trails the state average by nearly 10 points, and 8th grade ELA proficiency is critically low at just 15.2%. Results also vary dramatically across grade levels—4th grade math excels at 80.6%, while 3rd grade math sits at just 37.8%, and 8th grade science lags the state by 14 points. The school spends $12,851 per student, a significant investment for a school of this size, though the data does not include free/reduced lunch eligibility or student-teacher ratios, which limits context. Lakeview is a school on the rise, but targeted literacy interventions and more consistent instruction across grade levels will be key to transforming it from a near-median school into a consistently strong one.
