Summary

C Hal Henard Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Greeneville, TN, serving 453 students in the Greeneville City Schools district. The school has a compelling long-term improvement story, climbing from a 1-star rating a decade ago to four consecutive 4-star years, though its most recent 2025-2026 rating dipped to 3 stars (67th percentile statewide). It remains above the state average in every core subject and belongs to a district ranked 27th out of 141 in Tennessee.

Science is the school's clear academic strength, with 60% proficiency versus the state's 46.9%. The most distinctive positive, however, is how well the school serves economically disadvantaged students — that group performs in the 93rd percentile statewide, an extraordinary equity signal. ELA is also solid. The challenges are math, a pronounced 5th-grade dip (students fall roughly 10 points behind the district in both math and ELA), and chronic absenteeism of 11.3% — well below the state's 18.3% but above the district average.

Within its own district, Eastview Elementary is stronger in every subject, and Tusculum View Elementary also edges out C Hal Henard while posting half the chronic absenteeism. C Hal Henard, meanwhile, dramatically outperforms Highland Elementary in math and science despite Highland spending far more per student. Among nearby Greene County schools, Camp Creek Elementary is the only one that clearly beats it across all subjects; C Hal Henard's ELA and science scores top most of its regional peers. Overall, this is a solid school with an exceptional record for low-income students — the coming year will show whether the recent dip is a blip or a trend.
