Tullahoma Virtual Academy

Q: Is Tullahoma Virtual Academy a good school?

Tullahoma Virtual Academy ranks 294 th of 392 Tennessee high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 1 star out of 5.

Summary:

Tullahoma Virtual Academy is a small public virtual high school serving grades 9-12 in Tullahoma, Tennessee, a district ranked 105 out of 139 in the state and with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. With only 43 students enrolled, the school significantly underperforms compared to the Tullahoma district and the state of Tennessee across most subject areas, with only 7.7% of students proficient or better in Mathematics and 7.1% in English Language Arts.

Tullahoma Virtual Academy has a higher percentage of White students (76.74%) compared to the more diverse Tullahoma district, which raises questions about equity and access. The school also has a very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 1.4 to 2.4, compared to 21.9 at Tullahoma High School. However, this small size may limit the range of course offerings and resources available to students, and the academic performance data suggests the virtual school model is not effectively serving the needs of its students.

The absence of free/reduced lunch data for Tullahoma Virtual Academy makes it difficult to assess the socioeconomic status of the student population and how it compares to the surrounding Bedford County, Coffee County, Franklin County, Moore County, and Tullahoma schools. This information could provide valuable context for understanding the school's performance and challenges.

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.
