What this school's NCES data tells you

Counselor coverage works out to roughly 372 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 15.3% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Hawkins County spends $13,150 per pupil district-wide, above the Tennessee average of $12,324 and below the national average of $19,490.
