Every school in 37922 ranks in the top 13% of its school type statewide. Farragut Middle School is the standout, ranked #11 of 594 Tennessee middle schools (98th percentile) and improving steadily from #20 to #16 to #11 over three years. West Valley Middle School follows at #18, with slightly higher science proficiency (76.7%) than Farragut Middle (75.7%). Among elementary schools, Northshore Elementary School leads at #44 of 1,019 (96th percentile) with the lowest chronic absenteeism rate in the zip at 5.2%, followed by Farragut Intermediate School (#55), Blue Grass Elementary School (#72), and A L Lotts Elementary School (#133). Farragut High School ranks #21 of 400 high schools, though it has slipped slightly from #12 and #13 in previous years.

Academically, all schools exceed district and state averages in every subject, often by 20-30 percentage points. Farragut High School posts a 96.6% graduation rate and strong results in English II (85%) and Geometry (72.7%), though Algebra I (42.3%) is a relative weak spot. Chronic absenteeism is well below district (19.4%) and state (18.3%) averages at every school, but rises with grade level, from 5.2% at Northshore Elementary to 14.1% at Farragut High. Notably, per-student spending does not explain performance: Farragut Middle School has the lowest spending ($10,698) yet is the top-ranked middle school, while A L Lotts Elementary School has the second-highest spending ($12,437) but the lowest test scores among tested elementary schools. This is a high-performing pocket within a district that overall ranks just 78th of 141 in Tennessee.
