Summary:
Crockett County Schools, located in Alamo, Tennessee, has a single middle school—Crockett County Middle School—serving grades 6 through 8, enrolling 614 students, and earning a 3-star rating with a 60th percentile ranking among Tennessee middle schools for 2025–2026.
Because the district has only one middle school, Crockett County Middle School essentially defines the district's middle-grades performance. Social Studies is the school's strongest subject, with 56.3% of students proficient, outperforming the state by 4.9 percentage points. Eighth grade mathematics is also a standout, with 50.7% proficiency, more than 12 points above the state average. English Language Arts is the clearest concern: only 30.4% of students are proficient, more than 10 points below the state rate. The decline is especially sharp in upper grades, with just 29.3% of 7th graders and 25.4% of 8th graders proficient in ELA. Chronic absenteeism is remarkably low at 10.1%, roughly half the statewide rate of 18.3%, and per-student spending is $10,129.
The school has posted meaningful year-over-year gains in two subjects: Social Studies proficiency rose by 16.1 percentage points (from 40.2% to 56.3%), and Science improved by 6.1 points to 45.7%. Math slipped slightly, from 44.9% to 42.7%. Ranking trends show a solid mid-tier school, bouncing between the 53rd and 62nd percentiles over three years, with improvement from the 53rd percentile in 2024–2025 to the 60th percentile in 2025–2026. With low absenteeism, strong Social Studies and Science performance, and exceptional 8th grade math, the school has strong foundations; reversing the ELA decline would position Crockett County Middle School to rise into the upper quartile of Tennessee middle schools.
