Summary:
The 37181 zip code has only one school, Vanleer Elementary, a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 with 264 students. Vanleer Elementary is part of the Dickson County school district, which is ranked 35 out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
While Vanleer Elementary is part of a relatively high-performing school district, the school's own performance metrics are mixed compared to state and district averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 18.9% is higher than the state average, and its proficiency rates in mathematics and science are consistently below the Dickson County and Tennessee state averages. However, the school's English Language Arts proficiency rates are more varied, with some above and some below the district and state averages.
Vanleer Elementary appears to be well-resourced, with higher-than-average spending per student and a lower student-teacher ratio than the state average. However, these resources do not seem to be fully translating into strong student outcomes, particularly in the areas of mathematics and science. Further investigation into the school's specific challenges and strategies for improvement would be necessary to develop a more comprehensive understanding of its performance and potential.
