Summary:
The city of Counce, Tennessee has only one school, Pickwick Southside School, which serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 197 students. The school is part of the Hardin County school district, which is ranked 108 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Pickwick Southside School has a predominantly White student population (91.37%), with smaller percentages of other racial/ethnic groups. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on the TNReady assessments are consistently lower than the Hardin County and Tennessee state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in Mathematics, the school's overall proficiency rate was 20%, compared to 31.4% for Hardin County and 39.7% for the state. The school's performance has been relatively consistent over the past few years, with its statewide ranking among Tennessee elementary schools declining slightly from 605 in 2021-2022 to 704 in 2023-2024.
Despite the school's higher per-student spending of $13,955 and lower student-teacher ratio of 12.3 compared to the state average, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the school's students. The data suggests that Pickwick Southside School is facing significant challenges in providing its students with a high-quality education, and further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to help the school improve its outcomes and better serve its students.
