Summary:
The West Carroll Junior/Senior High School is the sole high school serving grades 7-12 in the West Carroll Sp District in Tennessee. With an enrollment of 347 students, the school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages on standardized tests across multiple subjects and grade levels over the past two school years.
The school's 89.2% four-year graduation rate is below average, while its 6.7% dropout rate is quite high, indicating a significant number of students are not completing their high school education. Proficiency rates on the TNReady assessments are generally lower than the state averages, with just 13.1% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 28.6% proficient in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 38.9% and 42.2% respectively. The school also struggles with a high 18.9% chronic absenteeism rate.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $13,733, its low 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking of 273 out of 389 Tennessee high schools suggest the school may be facing resource challenges that are impacting its ability to improve student outcomes. Addressing the school's consistently low performance, high dropout rates, and other issues will likely require a comprehensive approach focused on improving instructional quality, student engagement, and access to resources.
