Summary

Munford Middle School, located in Munford, Tennessee, serves 910 students in grades 6–8 as part of Tipton County Schools and ranks among the top middle schools in the state. The school holds a state rank of 85 out of 594 Tennessee middle schools (86th percentile, 4 stars) for 2025–2026, and it has earned 4-star ratings in nine of the past ten years. Within Tipton County Schools, Munford is the highest-performing middle school by a wide margin: Brighton Middle School ranks 149th statewide and Covington Middle School ranks 417th.

Munford's academic results are notably strong in STEM subjects. Math proficiency stands at 59.2% versus the state average of 43.0%, and 8th graders taking Algebra I achieve a remarkable 90% proficiency rate. Science (57.6%) and social studies (63.7%) also outpace state averages, while English language arts (41.1%) sits just above the state average and remains the school's relative weak spot. Compared with nearby schools, Munford holds its own even against higher-spending schools in neighboring districts. For example, Arlington Middle School and Bon Lin Middle School outscore Munford in ELA and science, but Munford is nearly equal in math and social studies while spending roughly $3,000 less per student.

One of Munford's most impressive achievements is how well it serves students who face economic challenges. Economically disadvantaged students rank in the 91st percentile statewide, and Hispanic students rank in the 92nd percentile—both top-tier results. The school also operates with exceptional efficiency, spending $9,357 per pupil, the lowest among nearby comparable schools, while outperforming schools that spend thousands more. Areas for improvement include English language arts instruction and chronic absenteeism (17.2%, above the district average of 14.0%). Special education students also trail their peers, ranking in the 62nd percentile. Nevertheless, Munford Middle School delivers consistently strong, cost-effective results across a decade of state testing.
