Summary

Collinwood High School is a public high school located in Collinwood, Tennessee, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 255 students. The school is part of the Wayne County School District, which is ranked 120 out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Collinwood High School has a history of low performance, with a statewide ranking that has fluctuated between 121 and 302 over the past 10 years, and a 1-3 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Collinwood High School consistently underperforms compared to the state and county averages on standardized tests, with only 7.3% of students proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to 11% in the Wayne County district and 29.4% statewide. The school's 4-year graduation rate has ranged from 75% to 89.2%, which is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate has been as high as 8.1%, significantly above the state and county averages. Additionally, Collinwood High School has a chronic absenteeism rate ranging from 16.4% to 21.2%, higher than the state and county averages.

Interestingly, the nearby Wayne County High School, which is also part of the Wayne County School District, significantly outperforms Collinwood High School on most metrics, including academic performance, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. This suggests that the challenges faced by Collinwood High School are not solely due to the district-level factors, but rather specific to the school itself. Additionally, the higher-than-average spending per student at Collinwood High School, coupled with the school's poor academic outcomes, suggests that the resources may not be effectively allocated or utilized to support student learning and achievement.
