Nettleton School District

The Nettleton School District is a rural district comprising only Nettleton School, which serves students in kindergarten through 12th grade. A total of 48 percent of the students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Nettleton is currently in the QZAB application process. The district plans to use QZABs to renovate buildings, replace air conditioning units, and upgrade technology by replacing old computers and obsolete software. The improvements would primarily affect math, science, and computer programs.

Nettleton School?s private partner is the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in Tupelo, Mississippi. TVA will contribute equipment, computers, and tables, as well as workshops and technical assistance so teachers will be properly trained to use technology in their teaching.
