Tennessee School Ranking
I must tell you that the information you provide is priceless. --- Deirdre S. more...Tennessee Public K-12 School Rankings are based on the Report Card provided by the TN Department of Education. There are two sets of rankings:
-
Standard Rankings:
- Elementary Schools: Percentage of students at the Proficient Level and above in Math and Reading/Language;
- Middle Schools: Percentage of students at the Proficient Level and above in Math and Reading/Language;
- High Schools: Percentage of students at the Advanced Level in Math (Algebra I), Science (Biology I) and English (English II);
You have the option of (i) Ranking all schools in the State of Tennessee (choose "All Systems" in the toolbar to the left), (ii) Comparing individual systems (choose "System Vs. System"), and (iii) Comparing all schools in a given System (choose, for example, "Shelby County").
