Summary:
Zip code 37774 in Loudon, Tennessee, is served by 4 public schools in the Loudon County Schools district: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, with a combined enrollment of 2,062 students. Overall, this district ranks 39th out of 141 in Tennessee, earning a solid 4-star rating.
The clear standout is Steekee Elementary School, which ranks in the 79th percentile statewide and earns 4 stars. Steekee posts 70.4% math proficiency and 55.1% ELA proficiency, far outpacing the district (55.2% math, 46.9% ELA) and the state. In contrast, Loudon Elementary School lags badly at 46.6% math and 34.0% ELA, despite serving the same grades and district. Ft Loudoun Middle School has shown steady improvement over three years, rising from the 35th to 45th percentile, but still sits below state averages in core subjects, and 8th grade ELA proficiency is just 19.5% versus the state's 32.3%. Loudon High School is a mixed story: it posts a strong 92.7% graduation rate and very low 2.0% dropout rate, but proficiency is uneven—Biology I reaches 55.3% (above the state), while Geometry (26.2%) and US History (28.1%) lag far behind state averages of 42.3% and 42.4%.
Several insights stand out. Steekee spends the most per pupil ($15,594) and gets the best results, while Loudon High spends the least ($12,496). Chronic absenteeism is low across all four schools—ranging from 9.5% at Loudon Elementary to 15.2% at Ft Loudoun Middle—well below the state's 18.3%, yet lower attendance problems do not translate into higher scores. Loudon High's Algebra I proficiency more than doubled in one year, from 14.8% to 33.0%, suggesting meaningful instructional changes or a different cohort. For parents, the key takeaway is that zoned school choice within 37774 matters a great deal: Steekee offers exceptional elementary education, while families should watch 8th grade performance at Ft Loudoun and math/history outcomes at Loudon High.
