Southridge Middle School

Summary:

Southridge Middle School is a public middle school located in Huntingburg, Indiana, serving grades 6-8 with a student population of 409. The school is part of the Greater Jasper Consolidated Schools district, which is ranked 92 out of 381 school districts in Indiana and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Southridge Middle School consistently performs above the state and district averages in ILEARN assessments for English Language Arts and Math, with 44.42% of students proficient or better in ELA and 44.92% proficient or better in Math, compared to the district averages of 41.55% and 49.02%, respectively. However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 2.3% in 2020-2021 to 9.5% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the nearby Heritage Hills Middle School and Jasper Middle School. Additionally, Southridge Middle School has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 57.7% in the 2022-2023 school year, compared to the nearby schools.

Southridge Middle School's diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (37.16% in 2022-2023) and a lower percentage of White students (61.61% in 2022-2023) compared to the nearby schools, can be a strength in terms of providing a rich learning environment. However, it may also present challenges in terms of meeting the diverse needs of the student body. While Southridge Middle School's academic performance has been consistently strong, ranking among the top 35 middle schools in Indiana in the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 school years, its ranking has since dropped to 127 out of 485 middle schools in the 2023-2024 school year, which may be a concern that the school needs to address.

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.
