Summary:
The zip code 47280 contains only one school, Taylorsville Elementary School, a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 590 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of White and Hispanic students, but its academic performance is generally below the district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas.
Taylorsville Elementary School's ILEARN test scores have declined over the past three years, with the school's statewide ranking dropping from 795 out of 1,020 elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 677 out of 1,010 in 2023-2024. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 12.3% and a significant economically disadvantaged population, with 74.92% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's above-average per-student spending of $11,504, its academic performance remains below the Bartholomew Con School Corp district and state averages.
These findings suggest the need for a comprehensive review of Taylorsville Elementary School's strategies, resource allocation, and support systems to identify and address the underlying factors contributing to the school's academic challenges. Addressing the issues of declining performance, socioeconomic challenges, and chronic absenteeism should be a priority for the school and district to ensure that all students have access to a quality education.
