The 37345 zip code is home to a single alternative public school, Huntland School, which serves grades PK-12 and has an enrollment of 662 students. Huntland School is part of the Franklin County school district, which is ranked 103 out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Huntland School's performance is generally below the district and state averages, particularly in the middle and high school grades. The school has a 89.2% four-year graduation rate, which is slightly above the state average, but a 6.7% dropout rate that is higher than the state average. Proficiency rates in math and English language arts are below the district and state levels across most grade levels, with a notable decline in the middle and high school years. The school also has a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 18.9%.
Despite these academic challenges, Huntland School appears to be investing more resources per student ($12,051 per student) and maintaining a lower student-teacher ratio (13.9) compared to state averages. This suggests the school may need to focus on improving the effectiveness of its instructional practices and support systems, rather than simply increasing funding or staffing, in order to better support student learning and achievement.
