Williamson County Schools are again the top schools in Tennessee, and the top elementary schools in the Nashville area once again are in Brentwood followed closely by Franklin schools. I've combined the TCAP scores for each area of testing Math/Reading/Science/social studies, and created a spread sheet for easy comparison. You can visit the Tennessee Department of education for information on schools not in the list. http://edu.reportcard.state.tn.us/pls/apex/f?p=200:30:2282987425277852::NO:::
Elementary school and middle schools use tcap scores, high schools use act scores. These are from the 2010 school year. Click on the school to see homes currently zoned for that school.

Williamson County Schools average over 20 percent better test scores than their neighbors to the north in Davidson county, and 10 percent better than Rutherford county and Wilson county. Within Williamson county the two Brentwood high schools are another 10 percent better even than the Franklin and Spring Hill schools, and a full 30 percent better than Davidson county schools and 20 percent better than the state average. If you don't think 20 percent matters, then don't complain when your child gets an average score on their report card.
