Summary:
ZIP code 37754 (Heiskell, TN) is served by a single school, Fairview Elementary School, which enrolls students in grades PK through 5 and is part of Anderson County Schools. Fairview stands out as a consistently high-performing 4-star school, ranking in the 77th–84th percentile statewide over the past three years, despite its district ranking only 47th among Tennessee districts.
Parents will find strong academics across most subjects and grades at Fairview. In 2025–2026, math proficiency reached 60.7%, ELA 59.3%, and science 56.8% — all well above the district and state averages (which hover near 40–46%). The school's biggest relative strength is ELA, with 3rd grade at 72.7% proficiency and 4th at 64.4%, far exceeding local and state peers. However, 5th grade ELA dips to 42.5%, slightly below the district average, suggesting an area for targeted support. Math is also a standout, especially in 4th grade at 72.7% proficiency, while 3rd grade math at 45.5% remains above district and state but is the lower point. Chronic absenteeism is just 9.9% — roughly half the district (17.1%) and state (18.3%) rates — and per-student spending is a robust $15,957, likely supporting the school’s outcomes.
The most striking takeaway is how much Fairview outperforms its district: ELA proficiency is nearly 20 points higher than the district average, and math/science each lead by about 9–11 points. The school also saw a large one-year jump in ELA from 50.4% to 59.3%, which may reflect a genuine improvement or a cohort effect. Because Fairview is the only school in the ZIP code, there are no local comparisons; students leave after 5th grade to attend middle schools elsewhere. Overall, Fairview Elementary offers a high-quality elementary experience with strong academics, excellent attendance, and consistent 4-star performance — a notable bright spot within Anderson County Schools.
