Doyle Elementary is a wonderful school. The teachers are great. They care about the children and their education. The teachers work with the classroom as a whole and one on one with the students if needed. When you walk into the school, everyone is always smiling, even the students. You couldn't ask for a better elementary school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Tennessee used the Gateway/End-of-Course (EOC) exams to test high school students in language arts, math, science, and social studies upon completion of relevant courses. Students must pass the algebra I, English II, and biology I tests, called the Gateway exams, in order to graduate. This year, Tennessee introduced two new exams in algebra II and English III, and those results are included on the GreatSchools profile as well. The Gateway/EOC exams are standards-based tests that measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of Tennessee. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
