KNOWLEDGE ACADEMIES HIGH SCHOOL

Knowledge Academies High School is a Title I public charter secondary school that is part of the Davidson County school district, located in Antioch, TN with about 289 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 11th 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 20 teachers, Knowledge Academies High School has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Knowledge Academies High School, located in the Hickory Hollow area of Antioch, Tennessee, operates as a public charter school committed to providing a rigorous academic environment for students in the greater Nashville area. As part of the broader Knowledge Academies network, the school focuses on a college-preparatory curriculum designed to equip students with the critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving skills necessary for post-secondary success. The institution emphasizes a culture of high expectations, aiming to serve a diverse student body by fostering both intellectual growth and character development within a structured educational setting.

The school’s pedagogical approach often integrates project-based learning and a focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) disciplines to keep students engaged and career-ready. By maintaining a smaller community feel compared to traditional large district high schools, Knowledge Academies seeks to provide more personalized attention and support services to its scholars.
