Effective Schools in the Johnson City and Washington County School Systems

In April the Education Consumers Foundation placed an ad in the Johnson City Press to recognize 7 schools in Johnson City and Washington County through its Most Effective Schools Campaign. ECF was joined by 48 local businesses expressing their support for these schools.

Schools were selected for their ability to advance student learning as measured by the Tennessee Value-Added Assessment System, or TVAAS. Each school recognized through this campaign was in the top 20% of schools statewide in either the Elementary schools category (755 schools in Tennessee) or K-8/Middle Schools category (531 schools in Tennessee).

These schools include:

Elementary Schools -

• Boones Creek Elementary - Ranked #1 of 10 in Johnson City/Washington County, #5 of 755 in the state
• Towne Acres Elementary - Ranked #2 of 10 in Johnson City/Washington County, #100 of 755 in the state
• Woodland Elementary - Ranked #3 of 10 in Johnson City/Washington County, #106 of 755 in the state

K-8/Middle Schools

• University School - Ranked #1 of 11 in Johnson City/Washington County, #4 of 531 in the state
• Fall Branch Elementary School - Ranked #2 of 11 in Johnson City/Washington County, #6 of 531 in the state
• Indian Trail Middle School - Ranked #3 of 11 in Johnson City/Washington County, #11 of 531 in the state
• West View School - Ranked #4 of 11 in Johnson City/Washington County, #93 of 531 in the state

These schools are some of the best in the state at helping children reach their academic potential - ECF is proud to recognize their work.
