Summary

Hampshire Unit School is an alternative public school serving grades K-12 in the Maury County school district. With 412 students, it is a relatively small school compared to the nearby Culleoka Unit School (882 students) and Santa Fe Unit School (525 students). Unfortunately, the school has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the bottom 30% of schools in Tennessee.

Hampshire Unit School has struggled with several key metrics. Its 4-year graduation rate has declined from 86.5% in 2022-2023 to 81.5% in 2023-2024, lower than the state average of around 90% and the Maury County district average of 86.5%. Correspondingly, the school's dropout rate has increased from 8.1% to 9.7%, significantly higher than the state average of around 5%. Additionally, Hampshire Unit School has grappled with high chronic absenteeism, reaching 21% in 2022-2023, nearly double the state average of around 11%.

When compared to the other alternative schools in the Maury County district, Hampshire Unit School generally performs worse on key metrics like graduation rates, dropout rates, and test scores. For instance, Culleoka Unit School and Santa Fe Unit School both have higher 4-year graduation rates (89.2%) and lower dropout rates (6.7%) than Hampshire Unit School. Despite having a lower student-teacher ratio, Hampshire Unit School spends more per student than the other two schools, suggesting that the school may not be effectively utilizing its resources to improve student outcomes.
