Summary

Harriman High School is a small public high school in Harriman, Tennessee, serving 354 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Roane County Schools district. The school currently holds a 2-star rating and ranks in the 35th percentile of Tennessee high schools, a notable drop from the previous two years when it sat at the 48th percentile. Among nearby schools, Midway High School, Roane County High School, and Oliver Springs High School all rank well above Harriman, while Rockwood High School and Central High School rank lower.

The most significant challenges at Harriman are chronic absenteeism, math proficiency, and a recently declining graduation rate. In 2024–2025, 23.6% of students were chronically absent, well above the district rate of 15.9% and the state rate of 18.3%. Math scores are among the lowest in the region: only 16.9% of students are proficient in Algebra I, 20.2% in Algebra II, and 17.2% in Geometry — less than half the state average for Geometry. The four-year graduation rate fell to 85.3%, down from 91.1% the previous year and now below the district (89.6%) and state (90.5%) averages. The dropout rate also jumped to 5.3%, nearly double the district's 3.0%.

Despite these struggles, Harriman has genuine bright spots. English II proficiency is 60.3%, slightly above both the district and state averages, and Biology I proficiency is 50.7%, also above the state average. Ninth-grade Biology results are especially striking, with 89.5% of 9th graders scoring proficient compared to 65.8% statewide, suggesting a particularly strong science experience for that grade. The school also shows relatively stronger outcomes for African American and low-income students than its overall ranking would suggest, with those subgroups historically performing at or above the 50th percentile statewide. While Harriman has never been a top-performing school, its ranking has fluctuated considerably — it climbed from the 22nd percentile in 2020–2021 to the 48th percentile within two years — indicating that meaningful improvement is possible if the school can address attendance and math instruction.
