Ravenwood High School - Brentwood, TN

Ravenwood High School is a place where students work toward becoming effective communicators, complex thinkers, quality producers, and independent as well as collaborative learners. It is a place where student academic achievement is paramount, and a place where athletic and artistic accomplishments serve as catalysts for the school’s community involvement and support.

Yes, Ravenwood High School may sound too good to be true, but the entire faculty and support team, from the principal to the cafeteria staff, along with strong external community backing, consistently ask, “What is in the best interest of students?” whenever decisions need to be made. The students are the future, and ensuring they are prepared for future academic endeavors or private sector employment or careers in the military is a team effort. And as its history shows, Ravenwood enjoys many success stories of its alumni.

Even in the face of adversity—a student enrollment of four hundred more than the intended capacity of the bricks and mortar structure—Ravenwood students continue to raise the ACT composite score, continue to increase AP class enrollment and the pass rates on AP exams, continue to contribute to those less fortunate via food and clothing drives, continue to maintain a high graduation rate, continue to win Williamson County School awards for academic and athletic achievement and growth, and continue to receive state recognition for its academic excellence.

Yes, this all may sound too good to be true. But it is true, and it exists here at Ravenwood High School in Brentwood, Tennessee.
