Crieve Hall Elementary

Crieve Hall Elementary is a public elementary school in Nashville, Tennessee, serving 499 students in kindergarten through fifth grade. Its composite score of 9.0 out of 10 earns an Exceptional rating — the product of a near-perfect academic score of 9.8 and strong growth at 8.4. The school ranks 7th out of 118 public schools in Nashville and 50th out of 1,785 across Tennessee, putting it in the top 3% of all public schools statewide.

That academic strength isn't limited to comparisons within its grade band — it holds up against middle and high schools too. A student-teacher ratio of 14.3 to 1 keeps class sizes manageable, giving teachers consistent access to individual students across a 499-student enrollment. For families in the Nashville area evaluating elementary options, Crieve Hall's numbers are hard to ignore.

Its scores reflect consistent academic delivery rather than a single strong year, and its rank among the top 45 elementary schools out of more than 1,000 statewide confirms the pattern holds within its own peer group. Among Nashville elementary schools specifically, very few outperform it — making it one of the strongest academic options available at the K–5 level in the city.
