How does Tennessee rank in education?

There might be some truth to the answer below. Tennessee ranks consistently in the bottom 10 states academically. But it is possible to get a good education for your children here. One simply has to be more involved than the average parent takes time to be. I was educated entirely in Tennessee and I know, at least, unlike the northerner complaining here about our school system, how to spell "libraries." And the ones in my town are usually well patronized. We can boast Vanderbilt, UT and the city of Oak Ridge, which is full of scientists with an unusually high number of doctorates for a town its size. It's not necessary to go the full homeschooling route, but if you leave your children's education entirely up to the school system in any state you are doing them a grave disservice. * * * * * I moved to Tn from the northeast and have been appalled at their education system. according to the news I've seen it ranks 42nd in Education which is up from when we moved here 3 years ago when the polls said it was 46th. very few people visit library's here. and there is still corporal punishment in the school system so if you don't want your child beaten with a paddle make sure to ask for and sign a statement saying you do not want them to be hit. we have also had various problems with the promotion of religion in the schools system like children singing hymns in kindergarden and being taught and made to say a christian form of grace in head state. personally I wouldn't send your children to public school in this state unless you are unable to homeschool and you are a mainline christian. I have many fundamentalist chrsitian friends who won't send their kids to school b/c of mainline evolution, science and history being taught. sincerely, TJ Jones http://www.paganspace.net/profile/VENGANCE_PUREBLOOD Sources: http://chattanoogapulse.com/newsfeatures/news-feature/Tennessee-ranks-42nd-in-health-and-education/ http://law.findlaw.com/state-laws/corporal-punishment-in-public-schools/Tennessee/ Less biased resource (US News & World Report) provides recent rankings of each State's public Education system and has Tennessee at #36 http://www.usnews.com/articles/education/high-schools/2009/12/09/Americas-best-high-schools-state-by-state-statistics.HTML
