Summary:

Zip code 37152, which serves the Ridgetop, Tennessee area, is home to just one public school: Watauga Elementary School. This K-5 school enrolls 343 students and is part of the Robertson County Schools district, which ranks 102 out of 141 districts in Tennessee with a 1-star rating. With no other schools in the zip code, comparisons must be drawn against district and state benchmarks. Watauga Elementary has earned a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, making its performance notably stronger than its district's overall rating.

The school's statewide rank has improved significantly, jumping from the 53rd percentile in 2023-2024 to the 67th percentile in both 2024-2025 and 2025-2026. In the most recent testing year, Watauga outperformed both the district and the state in every core subject. Mathematics is the standout, with 55.4% proficiency compared to 38.8% for the district and 43.0% for the state. English Language Arts proficiency reached 46.3% (vs. 35.8% district and 40.6% state), and Science reached 49.7% (vs. 38.7% district and 46.9% state). ELA improved by 6.2 points year-over-year, while science declined by 6.8 points. Chronic absenteeism is 16.0%, slightly above the district's 15.5% but below the state's 18.3%. Per-student spending is $14,510.

Grade-level results reveal a notable pattern: 3rd graders are exceptional, beating state averages by wide margins in ELA (51.5% vs. 44.9%) and science (56.1% vs. 44.3%), but 5th graders fall below state averages in both subjects (38.9% vs. 42.7% in ELA; 40.7% vs. 46.5% in science). Math remains strong across all grades, with 4th and 5th graders beating the state by roughly 8-10 points. This suggests early elementary years are a particular strength, while 5th grade may need extra support in reading and science. Overall, Watauga Elementary is a strong, improving school within a lower-rated district, making it an attractive option for Ridgetop families. Missing data on free/reduced lunch and student-teacher ratio, however, limits a fuller analysis.
