Best Public Schools in Zip Code 37206


Summary:

The 37206 zip code area of Nashville, Tennessee is home to 12 diverse schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While the schools exhibit a wide range of academic performance, two standout institutions, Meigs Middle School and Lockeland Elementary School, consistently rank among the top schools in the state and demonstrate exceptional test scores that far exceed the Davidson County and Tennessee averages.

The data reveals stark differences in academic performance across the schools in the 37206 zip code. While Meigs Middle and Lockeland Elementary boast proficiency rates of over 90% in Mathematics and English Language Arts, other schools, such as East Nashville Magnet High School and KIPP Academy Nashville Elementary School, struggle with significantly lower proficiency rates, as low as 17% in Mathematics. These disparities suggest the need for targeted interventions and resource allocation to address the challenges faced by the lower-performing schools and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the area.

The data also reveals a potential relationship between the racial makeup of the student population and academic performance. Schools with a higher percentage of White students, such as Lockeland Elementary, tend to have stronger test scores, while schools with a majority African American or Hispanic student body, like East Nashville Magnet High School and KIPP Academy Nashville Elementary School, demonstrate lower academic achievement. Further analysis would be needed to determine the extent of this relationship and the underlying factors that may contribute to the observed patterns.
