High Schools in Tullahoma

The Tullahoma area is home to two high schools: Tullahoma High School and Tullahoma Virtual Academy. While Tullahoma High School is the larger of the two with over 1,100 students, both schools have faced academic challenges in recent years, with declining performance and test scores below state averages.

Tullahoma High School has a diverse student population, but its statewide ranking has dropped from 147th out of 358 Tennessee high schools in 2021-2022 to 246th out of 374 in 2023-2024, and its SchoolDigger rating has declined from 3 stars to 2 stars. The school's test scores are generally below state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from around 10% to 70% across different subject areas and grade levels. In contrast, Tullahoma Virtual Academy, a much smaller school with only 43 students, has even lower test scores, with proficiency rates ranging from 7.1% to 40%.

The data suggests that both Tullahoma high schools face significant challenges in improving academic performance and addressing equity and access issues. While Tullahoma High School has a more diverse student population, Tullahoma Virtual Academy serves a predominantly White and African American student body. Addressing these disparities and developing targeted interventions to improve student outcomes will be crucial for the district's high schools.
