Madison County


Summary:

The schools in Madison County, Tennessee include 13 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, 6 high schools, and 1 alternative school, serving a diverse student population across the region. While the district exhibits a wide range of academic performance, several standout schools like Madison Academic Magnet High School and Community Montessori School consistently rank among the top in the state, with exceptional test scores and student outcomes.

The data reveals significant disparities in academic achievement across the district, with the highest-performing schools boasting proficiency rates over 50% in core subjects, while some lower-performing schools struggle to reach 20% proficiency. There appears to be a correlation between student demographics and school performance, with schools serving majority white or Asian student populations tending to outperform those with majority African American student bodies. Factors like funding, resources, and student-teacher ratios may also contribute to these differences in outcomes.

The presence of specialized magnet schools in the district suggests that families have some choice in their child's education, but access to these high-quality options may be limited. Addressing the systemic inequities and ensuring all students in Madison County have access to a high-quality education will be crucial for improving overall academic performance and outcomes across the region.
