Nashville education blogger TC Weber takes a deep dive into the data to find out about nearly 1500 students leaving MNPS well after the school year started.
Between August 12 and October 1, Metro Nashville Public Schools lost 1,481 students.
Just shy of 1,500 kids disappeared from Nashville’s zoned schools in six weeks.
The schools losing the most students are not fringe campuses or experimental programs. They are the district’s cornerstone comprehensive schools:
- Antioch High School (–131)
- McGavock High School (–108)
- John Overton High School (–103)
- Cane Ridge High School (–98)
- Antioch Middle School (–67)
- Glencliff High School (–62)
- Whites Creek High School (–52)
- Hunters Lane High School (–52)
- James Lawson High School (–52)
