Summary:

The schools in Washington County, Tennessee include 10 elementary schools, 2 high schools, and 2 alternative schools, serving students across a range of performance levels. While some schools in the district stand out as top performers, others struggle to meet state and district averages, revealing stark disparities in academic outcomes.

Among the standout schools are Boones Creek Elementary, ranked 250 out of 1,009 Tennessee elementary schools with a 4-star rating, and Ridgeview Elementary, ranked 159 with a 4-star rating. These schools demonstrate strong student proficiency in math, English Language Arts, science, and social studies, well above district and state averages. In contrast, schools like Lamar Elementary and South Central Elementary struggle, with proficiency rates significantly below the norm.

The two high schools, David Crockett and Daniel Boone, both have 89.2% four-year graduation rates and 6.7% dropout rates, indicating consistency in high school performance. However, the data for the alternative schools, University School and Tennessee Virtual Learning Academy, suggests the virtual school model may be struggling to effectively serve students.
