Huntingdon Primary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Huntingdon Special School District school district, located in Huntingdon, TN with about 420 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 3rd Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 31 teachers, Huntingdon Primary has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1.
