The school is part of the Southwest Dubois County School Corporation, which is ranked 92 out of 381 school districts in Indiana and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, the school consistently ranks in the top third of Indiana high schools, with performance on standardized tests on par with or slightly above state and district averages. Southridge also maintains a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 80.1% to 95.7% over the past five years, which is above the state average. However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 5.0% in 2020-2021 to 14.8% in 2022-2023, which is an area of concern.

When compared to nearby schools, Southridge High School's performance is generally stronger than that of Pike Central High School, but lags behind the higher-performing Northeast Dubois Junior/Senior High School and Heritage Hills High School in terms of academic rankings and test scores. Additionally, Southridge's increasing free and reduced lunch rates, from 28.54% in 2020-2021 to 47.53% in 2022-2023, suggest the school may be facing socioeconomic challenges that could impact student learning and achievement.

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.
