Summary

H Maynard Middle School in Maynardville, TN serves 604 students in grades 6–8 and is part of Union County Schools, a district that ranks in the bottom 12% of Tennessee districts. The school has historically scored below state averages, but it showed meaningful improvement in 2025–2026, climbing to the 31st percentile statewide (2 stars) after sitting in the low 20s for the previous two years.

Academically, H Maynard still trails the state in all four tested subjects, with math proficiency at 24.3% (state: 43.0%) and ELA at 27.3% (state: 40.6%). However, it outperforms its own district in math, science, and social studies. The clearest bright spots are social studies (40.2% proficient) and 6th grade science (43.8% proficient), both nearly matching state rates. By contrast, nearby Norris Middle School posts 57.4% math proficiency, and even Halls Middle School and Gibbs Middle School outperform H Maynard in math by 12 and 7 points, respectively. One of the biggest concerns is chronic absenteeism: 25.9% of students are chronically absent, well above the state rate of 18.3% and far higher than Norris (9.6%) or Rutledge Middle School (14.2%).

Spending at H Maynard has nearly doubled in four years to $14,831 per student, which is higher than better-performing schools like Jefferson Middle School ($10,972) and Norris Middle School ($13,370), yet outcomes have not kept pace. On a positive note, low-income students have shown steady improvement in statewide subgroup rankings, rising from the 6th percentile to the 26th percentile over two years. For parents, the key takeaway is that H Maynard is a improving school within a struggling district, with real strengths in social studies and 6th grade science, but math and ELA remain significant challenges, and attendance is a critical issue to watch.
