Summary

New Providence Middle is a public middle school in Clarksville, Tennessee, serving 1,055 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Montgomery County school district.

Academically, New Providence Middle's performance, as measured by TNReady test scores, is generally lower than the Montgomery County and Tennessee state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 26.2% of students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 41% for Montgomery County and 42.2% for Tennessee. The school's performance has been declining over the past few years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 156 out of 563 Tennessee middle schools in 2017-2018 to 332 out of 583 in 2024-2025.

Additionally, the school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.2% to 20.2% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. While the school's spending per student has been increasing, reaching $10,983 in the 2023-2024 school year, these challenges suggest opportunities for improvement in areas such as instructional practices, student support services, and targeted interventions for struggling students.
