Summary

Farragut High School is a public high school located in Knoxville, Tennessee, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 2,091 students. The school is part of the Knox County School District, which is ranked 77 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Farragut High School has consistently been one of the top-performing high schools in Tennessee, ranking within the top 20 schools in the state for the past several years. The school has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating excellent academic performance and student outcomes. Farragut High School consistently outperforms the Knox County and Tennessee averages on state assessments across various subjects and grade levels, particularly in mathematics. The school's performance is strong across different student subgroups, with rankings in the top 30 in the state for female, male, Asian, Hispanic, and white students.

While Farragut High School excels in many areas, there are a few areas where the school could focus on improvement, such as addressing the performance gap for African American students and students with special needs, as well as addressing the relatively high chronic absenteeism rates. Interestingly, Alcoa High School, which is located outside the Knox County district, demonstrates comparable or even stronger performance in some subject areas, suggesting that Farragut High School's success may be influenced by factors beyond just the school district.
