Spring Hill High School

Summary:

Spring Hill High School is a public high school in Columbia, Tennessee, serving 1,204 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Maury County School District. The school has shown strong academic performance, particularly in 9th-grade science, where 92.6% of students were proficient or better in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

Compared to nearby schools like Columbia Central High School and Northfield Academy, Spring Hill High School outperforms in several academic areas, including higher proficiency rates in biology, U.S. history, and English II. However, the school's performance on subgroups, such as Hispanic and special education students, suggests opportunities for targeted interventions to ensure equitable outcomes.

While Spring Hill High School's overall performance is relatively strong, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and a ranking of 131 out of 374 Tennessee high schools, the school's socioeconomic factors, such as free and reduced-price lunch rates, may be an area of focus. Continued monitoring and data-driven decision-making will be crucial for the school to maintain and improve its performance and provide a well-rounded education for all its students.

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.
