Summary:
The 47024 zip code area has only one school, Laurel School, which serves elementary students in grades PK-6. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, its academic performance, as measured by ILEARN test scores, is generally below the district and state averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas.
Laurel School has a very homogeneous student population, with 98.58% of students identifying as White. The school also has a high percentage of students (78.37%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student body. These factors may contribute to the school's lower academic performance and suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of the student population.
Despite the school's challenges, it does have some positive attributes, such as the low student-teacher ratio. However, the school's academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts and Math, indicates that there is room for improvement. By examining the school's instructional practices, resource allocation, and community engagement, the Franklin County Community School Corp may be able to identify and implement strategies to help Laurel School better support student learning and achievement.
