Summary:
The city of Lanesville, Indiana is home to two schools - Lanesville Elementary School and Lanesville Junior-Senior High School, both part of the Lanesville Community School Corp district. While the junior-senior high school is a standout performer, ranking 46th out of 431 Indiana high schools, the elementary school has more mixed results, ranking 327th out of 1,010 Indiana elementary schools.
Lanesville Junior-Senior High School boasts a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and maintains a high 4-year graduation rate of 96.1%. The school consistently outperforms state and district averages in several ILEARN and SAT test subjects. In contrast, Lanesville Elementary School has shown some strengths, such as higher-than-average proficiency rates in 3rd grade math and 5th grade social studies, but its overall academic performance is closer to the district and state averages.
Both schools have a predominantly white student population, with over 95% of students identifying as white. They also face similar challenges, such as relatively high chronic absenteeism rates. While the per-student spending and student-teacher ratios are relatively consistent between the two schools, the disparity in academic performance suggests that factors beyond just resources may be at play. Addressing attendance issues and exploring ways to enhance educational outcomes at the elementary level could be areas of focus for the Lanesville Community School Corp.
