Coffee County Virtual Academy

Summary:

Coffee County Virtual Academy is a small public virtual high school serving grades 6-12 in Manchester, Tennessee, part of the Coffee County school district. With only 57 students, the school consistently underperforms compared to the state and county averages on standardized tests across various subjects like Biology, US History, English, and Math. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 16.7% of 10th graders at Coffee County Virtual Academy were proficient or better in Biology I, compared to 42.9% in the Coffee County district and 36.5% statewide.

The student population at Coffee County Virtual Academy is predominantly White, at 85.96% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly higher than the racial diversity at nearby traditional high schools like Coffee County Central High School (80.78% White) and Shelbyville Central High School (35.03% White). This lack of diversity may limit the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience. Additionally, Coffee County Virtual Academy has a low statewide ranking, placing 315 out of 374 Tennessee high schools in the 2023-2024 school year, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, significantly lower than the nearby traditional high schools.

The analysis of Coffee County Virtual Academy highlights the challenges and potential limitations of virtual education, particularly in terms of academic performance and student outcomes. The school's underperformance compared to nearby traditional high schools and its lack of racial diversity suggest that the virtual learning model may not be the best fit for all students, and that more research and investment may be needed to ensure the success of virtual schools.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Dept of Education.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
