Summary:
Zip code 37186 in Westmoreland, Tennessee is served by a single high school, Westmoreland High School, which educates students in grades 9 through 12 with an enrollment of 518 students as part of Sumner County Schools. The school has earned a 4-star rating and ranks 70th out of 400 Tennessee high schools, placing it in the 82nd percentile for the 2025-2026 school year. Its state ranking has been consistently strong over the past three years, ranging from 62nd to 83rd.
Westmoreland High School's greatest academic strengths lie in mathematics and U.S. History. The school outperforms the state average in every tested subject, with particularly impressive results in Algebra I (57.2% proficient vs. 32.3% statewide) and U.S. History (66.9% vs. 42.4% statewide). Tenth-grade Geometry students posted an exceptional 86.2% proficiency rate compared to just 37.5% statewide. The school also keeps its dropout rate low at 3.1%, less than half the state average of 6.7%. Compared to its own district, however, Westmoreland leads in Algebra I, Algebra II, and U.S. History, but trails in Biology I, English I, English II, and Geometry.
The most significant areas of concern are English proficiency, chronic absenteeism, and graduation rates. Westmoreland trails Sumner County Schools by roughly 10 to 11 percentage points in English I and English II proficiency. Chronic absenteeism sits at 19.2%, which is 7 points above the district average. The graduation rate of 87.7% is below both the district (93.4%) and state (90.5%) averages. The school does invest heavily in its students, spending $15,298 per pupil. With a solid 4-star rating and clear strengths in math and history, Westmoreland High School is a strong choice, but families should be aware that the school has meaningful improvement opportunities in English instruction and student attendance.
