District Overview
Headquartered at 1011 Old Hwy 127 S in Jamestown, Tennessee, Fentress County Schools operates as a traditional, open public school district serving families across a distinctively rural remote region. Operating six active campuses, the district provides a continuous educational path spanning from early childhood pre-kindergarten through high school graduation (grades PK–12). As a primary hub of learning for its local community, the district is dedicated to fostering academic opportunities and supporting youth development across all grade levels within the region.
According to data from the 2024–2025 National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) dataset, Fentress County Schools maintains a total enrollment of approximately 2,229 students. The student population is predominantly White (2,105 students), with smaller cohorts of Hispanic (81 students), multiracial (22 students), Black (12 students), Asian, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, and American Indian students. For researchers and community members reviewing operational metrics, it is notable that full-time equivalent (FTE) personnel figures—including classroom teachers, instructional aides, and support personnel—were unrecorded or reflected as zero within this specific NCES reporting period. Despite these data reporting nuances, the district continues its vital mission as an essential public education resource for families throughout northern middle Tennessee.
