Maynard Elementary School (Maynard) is a small public school located at 737 College Street in Knoxville, Tennessee’s Mechanicsville neighborhood. When it opened in 1897, the school was named in honor of Horace Maynard — an American diplomat, U.S. representative for Tennessee, and professor at the University of Tennessee.
Here, approximately 130 students attend pre-K through fifth grade under the guidance and instruction of around 40 staff members. The entire school team is proud to be the courageous ‘Tigers’ of Maynard.
If you live outside the one-mile area around Maynard, known as the Parental Responsibility Zone (PRZ), Knox County Schools offers free transportation to and from school. Although residents within the PRZ are not eligible for transportation services, if you opt to not drive your student, it’s a quick walk or bike to school via sidewalks in the school’s vicinity — and throughout most of Mechanicsville.
After completing fifth grade at Maynard Elementary School, students in Mechanicsville are zoned to attend Bearden Middle School.
