21^st

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 400 Tennessee High Schools

Better than 95% of Tennessee high schools

Summary

Farragut High School is a large public high school in Knoxville, Tennessee, serving 2,073 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Knox County Schools district. Farragut is a clear standout: it ranks #21 out of 400 Tennessee high schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 95th percentile with a 5-star rating — the only 5-star school among nearby competitors. That puts it well ahead of Oak Ridge High School (#85), Bearden High School (#92), Hardin Valley Academy (#94), and Alcoa High School (#95).

Academically, Farragut outperforms its district and the state in every tested subject. In 2025–2026, proficiency rates reached 70.7% in Algebra II, 85.0% in English II, 72.7% in Geometry, and 71.5% in US History — often 30 points or more above state averages. Farragut also leads nearby schools, such as West High School, by wide margins on core subjects. The school posts a 96.6% graduation rate, a 2.3% dropout rate, and a 14.1% chronic absenteeism rate — all substantially better than district and state averages. The only relative weakness is Algebra I, where 42.3% of students are proficient; while that still beats the state rate of 32.3%, it trails Farragut's own performance in later math courses.

One of the most striking findings is cost efficiency: Farragut spends $10,955 per student — the lowest among all nearby schools — while producing the best results. By comparison, Oak Ridge spends $14,330 per student and Alcoa spends $14,878. Farragut also shines with special education students, ranking #6 of 210 Tennessee high schools in that subgroup for 2025–2026. Its statewide rank has drifted slightly from #6 in 2021–2022 to #21 today, but Farragut has stayed comfortably in the top 5% of Tennessee high schools for over a decade, making it a consistently strong option for families.
