Summary:

The Hardeman County Schools district in Tennessee consists of 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 133 out of 139 districts in the state and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out in terms of academic performance. Toone Elementary and Hornsby Elementary have significantly higher proficiency rates across multiple subjects and grade levels compared to the district and state averages. Meanwhile, Middleton High School and Central High School stand out for their higher graduation rates and lower dropout rates within the district.

However, the data also reveals some concerning trends across the Hardeman County Schools district. All schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, and the district generally performs below the state averages in proficiency rates across subjects and grade levels. These disparities in academic performance and the district's overall low ranking suggest a need for comprehensive improvement efforts to address the challenges facing the schools in this area.
