Schools in Zip Code 42211

ZIP code 42211 has five Trigg County Primary School, Trigg County Intermediate School, Trigg County Middle School, Trigg County High School and Harbor Academy and Virtual School, serving pre-kindergarten through grade 12 and enrolling 1,954 students altogether. Harbor enrolls just 7; the other schools range from 416 students at Intermediate to 590 at High. The clearest area-wide concern is that average results fell below matching state averages in all six reported subjects in 2025–2026, with the largest average gap in social studies—about 8 percentage points.

Results vary by grade, with some bright spots and sizeable shortfalls. Intermediate third graders scored 47% in mathematics, 4 points above the state, and fifth graders were 1 point ahead in writing, at 36% versus 35%. Middle seventh graders topped the state by 2 points in science, while eighth graders did so by 2 points in editing and mechanics. Middle sixth-grade reading matched the state at 54%; no reported reading result exceeded its state comparison. The largest gaps were 11 points: High mathematics was 29% versus 40%, Intermediate fourth-grade reading was 39% versus 50%, and High social studies was 26% versus 37%.

School trends are mixed: across comparable results, Intermediate’s average score rose 2 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while Middle’s fell about 1 point and High’s fell about 4. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile ranks rose from 32 to 35 for Intermediate and from 31 to 45 for Middle between 2023–2024 and 2025–2026, while High’s declined from 38 to 26. High also had a 99% graduation rate versus 94% statewide, but its chronic absenteeism was 24.2% compared with 23.5% statewide. Student-teacher ratios ranged from 14.4 at Primary to 20.7 at High in 2024–2025; free/reduced lunch eligible shares that year ranged from 52% at High to 59% at Primary. Harbor’s four 11th-grade test figures are suppressed, so its results do not support a stable school-wide comparison.
