Tri Junior-Senior High School

Summary:

Tri Junior-Senior High School is a public school located in Straughn, Indiana, serving grades 6-12 with a student population of 438. The school is part of the South Henry School Corporation, which is ranked 270 out of 381 districts in Indiana and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Tri Junior-Senior High School has consistently maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 89.5% to 98.3% over the past five years, which is a notable strength compared to the surrounding schools. However, the school's performance on standardized tests, such as ILEARN and SAT, is generally below the state and district averages, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (33.51%) and Math (17.53%) for all grades lower than the South Henry School Corporation's scores (31.3% and 29.64%, respectively). The school's lack of racial diversity, with over 95% of students identifying as White, and the achievement gaps between different student subgroups are areas that warrant further investigation and targeted interventions.

When compared to nearby high schools, such as Connersville Senior High School, Rushville Consolidated High School, and Shenandoah High School, Tri Junior-Senior High School generally performs below average on key metrics like test scores and school rankings. To improve the school's overall performance and provide a more equitable education for all students, the administration and the South Henry School Corporation should consider implementing data-driven strategies, allocating resources effectively, and fostering a more inclusive and supportive learning environment.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
