Summary

Cannon County High School is a public high school located in Woodbury, Tennessee, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 533 students. The school is part of the Cannon County School District, which is ranked 136 out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cannon County High School consistently performs below the state average on TNReady assessments across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were significantly lower than the state averages in Algebra I (13.3% vs. 3.2%), Algebra II (5.2% vs. 34.6%), and Biology I (16.8% vs. 45.7%). The school also has a lower four-year graduation rate, ranging from 81.7% to 89.2% over the past few years, and a higher dropout rate, ranging from 6.1% to 10.3%. Additionally, Cannon County High School has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 16.4% to 22.0% in recent years, which is significantly above the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Warren County High School, Cannon County High School generally performs worse academically. Despite relatively high per-student spending of around $10,000-$11,000 in recent years and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.3-16.0, the school has not been able to translate these resources into improved outcomes, particularly for vulnerable student populations. Addressing the root causes of the school's underperformance, such as instructional quality, student support systems, and school climate, will be crucial for improving the educational experience and outcomes for Cannon County High School students.
