Best Elementary Schools in Zip Code 38477


Summary:

The 38477 zip code in Tennessee is home to a single elementary school, Elkton Elementary, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. Based on the available data, Elkton Elementary does not appear to be a standout performer, ranking 649 out of 1,009 Tennessee elementary schools for the 2024-2025 school year and earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Elkton Elementary's academic performance is consistently below the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 23.4% in mathematics, 25.3% in English language arts, 39.6% in science, and 40.5% in social studies, compared to the Giles County district averages of 39.6%, 34.2%, 48.1%, and 49.9%, respectively. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 18.9% in 2023-2024 is relatively high, which can negatively impact student achievement.

While the school's spending per student of $16,378 in 2023-2024 is higher than the state average, it's unclear if this additional funding is being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes. Without information on the school's free/reduced lunch rate, it's difficult to make a more comprehensive assessment of the challenges the school may be facing. Overall, the data suggests that Elkton Elementary is a struggling school that needs to address its academic performance and other areas of concern to better serve its students and community.
