Summary:
Randolph Southern School Corp in Indiana has only one elementary school, Randolph Southern Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school faces some challenges, including lower-than-average academic performance and a high chronic absenteeism rate, but also has some positive metrics like a relatively low student-teacher ratio.
Randolph Southern Elementary School has a student population of 294, with a racial makeup of 90.48% White, 1.7% African American, 3.74% Hispanic, and 3.74% two or more races. The school has a high percentage of students (57.48%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's proficiency rates in ILEARN (Indiana's standardized assessment) were 40.15% in English Language Arts and 51.09% in Math, both of which are below the state averages and the Randolph Southern School Corp district average.
The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 16.2% is a significant concern, as it can negatively impact student learning and academic achievement. The school's consistent academic performance over the past few years, with proficiency rates in the 30-50% range for both ELA and Math, suggests that the school may be facing challenges in improving student outcomes. Additionally, the school's spending per student for the 2021-2022 school year was $8,808, which is slightly lower than the state average.
