District-Level NCES Analysis

Campbell County operates 12 public schools serving 5,294 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Tennessee. The school portfolio breaks down into 7 other, 2 high, 2 middle, 1 elementary schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 5,118 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Campbell County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,283 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 19.5% local, 50.8% state, and 29.7% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $55,657 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 53/100, ranked #18 of 140 in Tennessee against a state average of 38 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 12 schools offering Advanced Placement (7 AP courses district-wide), and 32.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 96.5% White, 1.9% Hispanic or Latino, 0.4% African American across the district's schools.

Campbell County Comprehensive High School accounts for 22.2% of all Campbell County student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Campbell County-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Campbell County chronic absenteeism rate is 32.6% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)

chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
