High Schools in Lake County

There is only one high school located in Lake County, Tennessee - Lake County High School. This school serves students in grades 9-12 and has a total enrollment of 199 students. The school's academic performance lags behind the state averages across several key subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates well below the Tennessee averages. For example, in 2023-2024, only 22.2% of 10th graders were proficient or better in TNReady/Biology I, compared to the state average of 36.5%.

The school's overall ranking within the state of Tennessee has declined over the past few years, dropping from 291st out of 358 high schools in 2021-2022 to 334th out of 374 high schools in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's district, Lake County, is ranked 137th out of 139 districts in Tennessee and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. This suggests that the school may be facing significant challenges in serving its student population effectively.

The school's racial makeup is predominantly White (60.3%), with a significant African American population (28.64%) and a small Hispanic population (4.52%). This lack of diversity may be a concern and could impact the school's ability to serve the needs of all students effectively. Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (not provided in the data) and the low district ranking suggest that the school may be serving a socioeconomically disadvantaged population, which could contribute to the academic challenges.
