Central View Elementary is greatest schools around. The teachers there care, love, and enjoy their jobs. There is not a student at Central View School that does not have help, understanding, and love. This school is small and children do come first.

My son went to Central View for a year and a half. The teachers and staff know each child individually. They are all so kind and helpful. They get to know which children are related and know if something is wrong or if the wrong person tries to pick up the children. Each teacher is compassionate and the principal is fantastic. I highly recommend this school.

I must say this school ranked very high on my list, this is because when my children wanted to play sports, or be on the cheer leading squad, they weren't singled out because of how much money they had, they just had to show real passion in what they wanted to do. This school will always be # 1 on our list!

We are very pleased with this school. All of the staff are real friendly. Nobody turns their nose up like they are better. My children love it here and the teachers are wonderful.

I have to say that Central View Elementary is the best school in the state of Tennessee. The children are all special. They are taught with extreme patience and care. The teachers are wonderful,they are committed to helping each child to be the best they can be. They are more like a family than a school,the attendance is somewhere around 100 students total, therefore the classes are smaller and more one on one is available. I am very grateful that my children have been able to attend this wonderful 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.
