Our Educational Philosophy:

• average or adequate is not sufficient
• status quo or complacency is unacceptable
• our students deserve the best we can give
• change is inevitable and can be good
• improvement is essential and desirable
• we can and will improve

Goals for Quality Education:

Almost 1400 students are enrolled in our school system.  The students attend one of three schools:

• McKenzie Elementary School (grades K-4)
• McKenzie Middle School (grades 5-8)
• McKenzie High School (grades 9-12)

All schools are accredited by the Tennessee Department of Education and secondary schools are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.  These schools are supported by the McKenzie Board of Education and its staff.

The McKenzie Special School District invites you to visit each of our schools' web sites as well as the rest of McKenzie, Tennessee.
