Summary:
Benton County, Tennessee is home to a single high school, Camden Central High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has been inconsistent in recent years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 165 and 236 out of 384-392 Tennessee high schools, and its SchoolDigger rating ranging from 2 to 3 stars out of 5.
Camden Central High School's academic performance is generally lower than the county and state averages, particularly in core subjects like Algebra I, US History, and English I/II. The school's proficiency rates on the TNReady assessments are significantly below the Benton County and state averages in these areas. However, the school's performance is slightly better in Algebra II and Biology I, where its proficiency rates are closer to or slightly above the county and state averages.
The school also faces challenges with attendance and graduation, as its chronic absenteeism rate of 18.9% and 4-year graduation rate of 89.2% are both higher than the state averages. While the school's per-student spending is in line with the state average, more comprehensive data would be needed to fully understand the factors contributing to the school's performance and identify potential areas for improvement.
