Funding

How Tennessee funds schools

Tennessee funds districts through Tennessee Investment in Student Achievement (TISA), the student-based formula that replaced the BEP in 2023–24. It pays a base of $7,075 per student (2024–25), then layers on weights for economically disadvantaged, concentrated-poverty, rural, small-district, English-learner and special-education students, plus direct funding (such as K-3 literacy and CTE) and an outcomes pool. Base and weighted funding are split 70% state and 30% local.

District-level per-pupil spending and the local/state/federal revenue split for Anderson County School District are published in the federal school-finance files — see the full-data links below for the current figures.

Accountability

Report card & state results

Tennessee reports on the State Report Card, which since December 2023 assigns A–F school letter grades alongside TCAP achievement, TVAAS growth, graduation, English-learner proficiency and college-and-career readiness. Look up Anderson County School District on the Tennessee State Report Card.

Accreditation

Accreditation status

Tennessee approves and holds public districts accountable itself through the Department of Education and State Board, rather than requiring a private accreditor; Cognia accreditation is voluntary and used mainly by non-public schools. See the Tennessee Department of Education.
