Summary

Daniel Boone High School is a public high school located in Gray, Tennessee, serving 1,146 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Washington County School District, which is ranked 41 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Daniel Boone High School has consistently ranked in the top third of Tennessee high schools, with strong performance in specific subject areas like Algebra II, Biology I, and US History, where the school outperforms the state and district averages. However, the school's overall performance on TNReady assessments is generally on par with or slightly below the state and district levels. The school's graduation rate ranges from 86.5% to 94.2%, which is in line with or slightly above state and district averages, while the dropout rate is also comparable.

One area of concern is the school's higher chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 15.9% to 20.5%, which is above the state and district averages. Additionally, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with male students generally outperforming female students and Hispanic students performing relatively well, while special education and low socioeconomic status students have lower rankings. These disparities suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address achievement gaps and ensure equitable access to educational opportunities for all students.
