Summary

Warren County High School is a large public high school in McMinnville, Tennessee, serving roughly 1,689 students in grades 9 through 12—making it about three to four times larger than nearby Grundy County High School and Cannon County High School. Despite its district, Warren County Schools, ranking in the bottom 20% of Tennessee districts, the school itself has climbed steadily in statewide rankings to the 61st percentile (3 stars) in 2025-2026, up from the 27th percentile in 2015-2016. It now ranks as the strongest-performing traditional high school among its nearby peers.

Academically, Warren County High School outperforms nearby schools in nearly every subject. On TNReady tests, proficiency rates exceed those of Grundy County High School and Cannon County High School in Algebra I, Algebra II, Biology, English I, English II, and U.S. History—where Warren's 46.3% proficiency rate is actually above the state average of 42.4%. Geometry is the clear exception, with just 20.0% proficiency compared to the state average of 42.3%. The school also shines in student retention: its 97.0% graduation rate and 3.0% dropout rate both beat the state averages and every nearby school. Chronic absenteeism is a moderate concern at 19.3%, slightly above the state average of 18.3%, though it has improved substantially from 29.5% the previous year.

Warren County High School serves several student subgroups particularly well. Low-income students ranked in the 73rd percentile statewide, earning 4 stars, and male and female students perform at nearly identical levels. However, English language learners saw a steep decline from the 86th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 18th percentile in 2024-2025, and special education students remain a persistent concern with low rankings over the past three years. The school spends $11,201 per student—less than both Grundy ($11,364) and Cannon ($12,052)—yet achieves stronger academic results, suggesting efficient use of resources. If the school can address its math gap and attendance issues, it has a strong foundation for continued improvement.
