Summary:

Middlesettlements is an exemplary elementary school located in Louisville, Tennessee, serving 329 students in grades PK-5. As part of the Blount County school district, Middlesettlements consistently outperforms the district and state averages in academic proficiency across core subject areas.

Middlesettlements' academic excellence is evident in its strong performance on TNReady assessments. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school had 54.4% of students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 39% for Blount County and 39.7% for Tennessee. In English Language Arts, 56.2% of Middlesettlements' students were proficient or better, compared to 37.7% for Blount County and 37.6% for Tennessee.

Middlesettlements' success extends beyond overall academic performance, as the school also demonstrates exceptional outcomes for its diverse student subgroups. The school's female, male, and white student populations all rank in the top 20% of Tennessee elementary schools, and its low socioeconomic status (SES) students perform in the top 15%. This equitable achievement is particularly noteworthy, as Middlesettlements outperforms nearby schools like Rockford Elementary and Union Grove Elementary, which lag behind in academic proficiency. While Middlesettlements is a high-performing school, there may be opportunities to further enhance student outcomes, particularly in areas where the school's performance, while strong, is still below the top-performing schools in the state.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
