Nashville-area private schools: all 137, with their state status
Every private school and early-learning program we could match across the federal survey and TDOE's 2026-27 records for Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford, Sumner and Wilson counties — approval category, grades, enrollment, and whether each is on the EFS (81 here) and ESA (41 here) lists.
Where this comes from. School details merge the NCES Private School Survey (2023-24) with the Tennessee Department of Education's 2026-27 Non-Public Schools Directory (updated October 5, 2026), its EFS registered-school list (updated August 24, 2026) and its Middle Tennessee ESA list (updated September 24, 2026), all retrieved October 28, 2026. Tuition is not reported to the state, so confirm it with the school.
