Summary
Eagleville School is a PK–12 school in Eagleville, Tennessee, serving about 1,013 students within Rutherford County Schools. Despite its "Alternative" classification, it operates as a comprehensive school with strong results across nearly every grade and subject. On recent TNReady assessments, 71.8% of students scored proficient in math versus 53.6% for the district and 43.0% for the state; ELA proficiency was 62.5% compared to 47.0% district and 40.6% state. The advantages are even larger on end-of-course exams — Algebra I proficiency is 73.8% versus 39.9% for the district, and English I is 78.9% versus 52.2%. The middle grades are a particular strength, with 6th grade math at 82.2% proficiency and 6th and 7th grade social studies both exceeding 86%.
Attendance and graduation outcomes are equally impressive. Chronic absenteeism is just 7.5%, far below the district's 11.3% and the state's 18.3%. The graduation rate is 97.0%, exceeding both the district (96.6%) and state (90.5%). The school spends about $14,126 per student, a higher figure than many schools in the same district, and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of roughly 14.2:1. These strong results are also stable over time, with math proficiency holding between 69% and 72% over the past four years, suggesting the school's success is systemic rather than a one-year fluke. The relative weak spot is 5th grade, where scores still meet or exceed district averages but with narrower margins.
When compared to Rutherford County Virtual School, the only nearby comparable school, Eagleville leads in nearly every subject including math, science, social studies, English I, and Algebra I; the virtual school only edges ahead in English II. For parents looking for a well-attended, academically strong school with low absenteeism and a high graduation rate, Eagleville School offers a compelling and consistently high-performing option within Rutherford County Schools.
