Summary

Henry County Virtual Academy is a small, alternative public virtual school serving grades K-12 in Henry, Tennessee, part of the Henry County School District, which is ranked 49th out of 139 districts in the state.

While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, it faces challenges in maintaining high graduation rates, with rates ranging from 61.5% to 93.8% over the past few years, lower than nearby traditional public schools like Big Sandy School (89.2%) and E.W. Grove School (89.2%). The school has also experienced fluctuating dropout rates, from 3.2% to 15.4%, higher than the 6-7% rates at surrounding schools. Additionally, Henry County Virtual Academy has higher chronic absenteeism rates, between 12.3% and 20.3%, compared to the state average.

Academically, the school's performance on state assessments (TNReady) is significantly lower than the Henry County and Tennessee averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in Geometry (5.9%), English II (30%), and US History (33.3%) were well below the county and state averages. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $5,127 to $9,675, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes when compared to nearby alternative schools.
