About Shwab Elementary

Welcome to Shwab Elementary, where learning is our lifestyle and failure is not an option! Shwab Elementary is a diverse neighborhood school that welcomes students from a variety of backgrounds.

Doors open at 7:30 a.m. for arrival/breakfast, classes start at 8 a.m., and K-5 students are dismissed at 3:00 p.m.Bulletin board

Our curriculum is directly aligned to the Tennessee State Standards. To help each student achieve his or her full potential, the school provides enrichment and intervention support.  We have a popular Positive Behavior Incentive System (PBIS), which allows students to earn rewards for good behavior throughout the year.

For our gifted students, we offer Encore along with the Young Scholars of Nashville (YSN) to develop student potential. We also have Pre-K and Exceptional Education Pre-K classes. Our Related Arts offerings include Art, Music, and PE.

Finally, parents love the community that we have intentionally cultivated here at Shwab. We are a school that takes care of the whole child, and we work collaboratively with all stakeholders to make that happen. We partner with our families and community to increase the opportunities and supports for our students, and to celebrate the results. Shwab Elementary is a school were all students are empowered to be multi-talented lifelong learners!
