Loudon High School

Summary:

Loudon High School is a public high school serving 732 students in grades 9-12 in Loudon, Tennessee, which is part of the Loudon County School District. The school stands out for its higher percentage of Hispanic students compared to nearby schools, as well as its fluctuating academic performance and achievement gaps among different student subgroups.

While Loudon High School's overall performance on state assessments is generally on par with or slightly below the Loudon County and Tennessee averages, the school has seen significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 76th out of 347 high schools in 2020-2021 to 179th out of 374 high schools in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school's performance may be inconsistent or influenced by factors beyond just academic achievement. Additionally, the school's performance varies greatly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds performing significantly worse than their peers. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address these achievement gaps.

Compared to nearby high schools, such as Hardin Valley Academy and Farragut High School in the Knox County district, Loudon High School generally performs on par or slightly below in terms of academic achievement. However, the school's increased spending per student and relatively low student-teacher ratio suggest that it is investing resources in its educational program, though the inconsistent academic performance indicates that factors beyond just funding and staffing may be influencing student 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.
