Summary

Greeneville High School is a public high school in Greeneville, Tennessee, serving 871 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Greeneville City Schools district, which ranks 27th among Tennessee districts with a 4-star rating. The school itself is ranked 75th out of 400 Tennessee high schools for 2025-2026, earning 4 stars and an 81st percentile statewide rank.

By most measures, Greeneville High is a strong school. It outperforms the Tennessee state average in every core subject, with particularly large advantages in U.S. History (+15.9 points), Algebra I (+13.2), and English I (+11.4). The school also posts the lowest chronic absenteeism rate among nearby high schools at just 12.7%, compared with the state average of 18.3%, and it spends $15,470 per student — roughly 30–45% more than neighboring county schools like West Greene High School ($10,574) and Chuckey Doak High School ($10,722). Achievement is also broad-based: low-income students rank in the 82nd percentile statewide, and Hispanic students have climbed from the 29th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 55th today.

The watch items are graduation rate and ranking trends. Greeneville High's graduation rate has slipped to 90.7%, down from 98.5% just a few years ago, and it now trails several nearby schools with weaker test scores, including North Greene High School (98.7%) and Cherokee High School (96.8%). The school's statewide rank has also declined from a 5-star, top-25 position in the late 2010s to its current 4-star status, and Chuckey Doak High School — located just 5.3 miles away — now outranks it (54th vs. 75th) despite spending far less per student. Special education results have also been volatile, swinging from the 37th to the 86th percentile over the past three years. None of this makes Greeneville High a weak school, but families should watch whether the school can convert its strong attendance and resource advantages back into the elite performance it once posted.
