Clarksville-Montgomery
County School System
The Clarksville-Montgomery County School System
(CMCSS) continues to be recognized nationally for
its academic and professional achievements, as well
as its progressive and innovative methods for helping
students become college and career ready. For four
years straight, the system has been number one in
the state for academic growth.
As an ISO-9001:2015 certified organization focused on
continuous improvement, CMCSS continues to develop
and strengthen a variety of programs for ensuring student
success. Sixteen of its 40 schools were recognized
as Reward Schools, performing in the top five percent
statewide. After-school programs, virtual high school,
36
and credit recovery, as well as other intervention and
transition programs for children in elementary, middle
and high school, provide students with greater learning
advantages and opportunities to stay on track with their
peers. With the increased rigor in academic areas,
students on all learning levels can benefit.
Thinking outside of the box, the
school system has eight college and
career academies in each of the
high schools, a Middle College High
School on the campus of Austin
Peay State University, an Early
Technical College at Tennessee
College of Applied Technology and
many other early postsecondary
opportunities. In partnership with
Austin Peay, two high schools offer
the study of Korean and Japanese.
In 2018, CMCSS opened its first
Spanish language immersion school
for kindergarten through fifth grade.
