Summary

Huntingdon Primary School, located in Huntingdon, TN, serves 455 students in grades PK–3 and is part of the Huntingdon Special School District. In 2025–2026, the school earned a 4-star rating and ranked 131st out of 1,019 Tennessee elementary schools — an 87th-percentile showing that marks a dramatic jump from the prior year's 57th percentile. That places it among the top 15% of elementary schools statewide.

Academically, Huntingdon Primary is a standout in its region. Its 2025–2026 TNReady proficiency rates reached 72.3% in math and 65.3% in ELA — roughly 29 and 25 percentage points above state averages, respectively. Science proficiency came in at 50.0%, above the state's 46.9%. Those results outpace nearby schools such as Milan Elementary School, McKenzie Elementary School, and Henry Elementary School by wide margins in reading and math. Because the school only serves through 3rd grade, these scores effectively measure how well its youngest students are building foundational skills before moving on to upper elementary.

What really sets Huntingdon Primary apart is its success with students who often face extra challenges. Special education students ranked in the 92nd percentile statewide, and low-income students ranked in the 91st percentile — both earning 5 stars. Chronic absenteeism is remarkably low at 8.3%, less than half the statewide rate of 18.3%. The school also spends less per student ($11,716) than most nearby schools while delivering stronger results. The main watch items are a fluctuating gender performance gap and some year-to-year variability in subgroup rankings, but the overall trajectory is highly encouraging for families considering this school.
