Beaumont Elementary/Magnet is a top performer, ranking in the top 35% of Tennessee elementary schools and boasting relatively low chronic absenteeism rates.

However, its overall ranking places it in the bottom 30% of Tennessee elementary schools. The data reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing and lower-performing schools, as well as uniformly high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools in the 37921 zip code area, which may contribute to the academic struggles.
