Understanding the 2/10 Rating
With a rating of 2/10 (low-rated), Campbell County School District ranks among Tennessee’s low-rated-rated school systems. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in the U.S. Department of Education’s EDFacts collection (2017–18 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score. Because Tennessee is compared only against itself, the rating reflects how this district performs relative to its in-state peers.
Campbell County School District holds a low overall rating, with reading and math proficiency among the lowest in Tennessee on state assessments. Test results reflect many factors beyond the classroom, including community and economic conditions; a low score is a signal to research carefully, not a verdict on any individual school or teacher.

Contact the district directly to understand exactly what programs are available at your assigned school.
