Central High School

Summary:

Central High School is a public high school located in Harrison, Tennessee, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 749 students. The school is part of the Hamilton County School District, which is ranked 79 out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Central High School faces several challenges, including a diverse and changing student population, consistently low academic performance, and a low statewide ranking. The school has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools like Soddy Daisy High School and Sequoyah High School, which have significantly higher percentages of White students. However, Central High School consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages across various subject areas and grade levels, with only 16.3% of 10th-grade students proficient or better in TNReady/Biology I, compared to 37.4% in Hamilton County and 36.5% statewide.

The school's low academic performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, who perform significantly worse than their peers at the state level. Additionally, Central High School has a low statewide ranking, placing between 210-298 out of 347-384 Tennessee high schools over the past several years, with a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger. Factors such as the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students and the relatively high student-teacher ratio may be contributing to the school's challenges in improving educational outcomes.

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.

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.
