Summary
Central Magnet High School in Rutherford County, Tennessee, was named the No. 1 high school in the U.S. in the latest U.S. News & World Report rankings.
The ranking was based on state assessment performance and college-readiness, two measures that helped lift the school from No. 3 last year to the top spot.
Rutherford County Schools said Central Magnet has ranked among the nation’s best since opening in 2010, underscoring a long run of strong results rather than a one-year jump.
Across Tennessee’s 440 high schools, Rutherford County placed 8 schools in the top 25%, highlighting the district’s broader strength beyond Central Magnet.
