With 1,200 students in grades, Hardin Valley Elementary—home of the Hawks—serves a diverse community at its campus on Hardin Valley Road in Knoxville, Tenn. HVES is one of the top-ranked elementary schools in the district. All students benefit from a comprehensive education that includes a rotating schedule of encore classes where students can participate in STEAM, music, art, technology, PE, and library activities.
There is a robust PTO that supports HVES through organizing fundraisers, teacher appreciation meals, student activities, and the annual hoe-down each October.
HVES students have the chance to participate in school-sponsored clubs such as robotics and safety patrol.
Hardin Valley Elementary School students who live more than a mile away from the school are eligible to ride the bus to and from school each day. Students living within a one-mile radius are considered part of the parental responsibility zone and do not qualify for transportation services.
With the top-notch education at HVES, the littlest of the Hardin Valley hawks are ready to move on to Hardin Valley Middle School after they complete fifth grade.

I have two children enrolled at Hardin Valley. We've had a wonderful experience. The school is large, but it still somehow feels like a small school. The teachers are caring and empathetic. The admin care about the community and families. We have nothing but positive things to say about the school.
