Summary:
Zip code 38541 contains just one school — Allons Elementary School — a PK–8 campus in Allons, Tennessee, serving 378 students as part of Overton County Schools. This single-building school covers the entire community from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade, meaning students stay in the same building for many years, which can promote stability but also means any academic strengths or weaknesses are concentrated in one school.
Allons Elementary has seen its state ranking fall from the 56th percentile (3 stars) in 2023–2024 to the 34th percentile (2 stars) in both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026. Still, there are notable bright spots. The 8th grade cohort is exceptional, outperforming state averages in every subject — math at 64.3% vs. 38.3% statewide, ELA at 42.9% vs. 32.3%, science at 57.1% vs. 44.3%, and social studies at 61.9% vs. 47.6%. All-grades math (42.5%) and social studies (54.1%) beat district averages, and science improved by 8.3 points and social studies by 9.8 points year-over-year.
English Language Arts is the school's biggest concern, with all-grades proficiency at 33.6% versus 40.6% statewide. The 3rd and 6th grades are the weakest cohorts — 3rd grade math is at 20.5% vs. 42.6% statewide, and 6th grade ELA is at 21.2% vs. 39.8%. On a positive note, chronic absenteeism is 14.5%, better than the district (17.8%) and state (18.3%) rates. Student-teacher ratio and free/reduced lunch data are not reported, so parents have limited context on class sizes and socioeconomic factors.
