Summary:
The city of Commiskey, Indiana has only one school, Graham Creek Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school is part of the Jennings County School Corporation, a district ranked 209 out of 381 in the state and with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Graham Creek Elementary School has a predominantly white student population, with 94.82% of students identifying as white. The school has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years, despite being ranked between 346th and 382nd out of over 1,000 Indiana elementary schools during that time. Academically, the school outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, particularly in 3rd-grade math where 89.19% of students were proficient or better, compared to 55.56% and 52.4% for the district and state, respectively.
However, the school faces some challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate of 13.4%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, over 60% of Graham Creek Elementary School's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant socioeconomic need within the school community. While the school's academic performance is strong, the lack of racial diversity and higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate suggest areas for potential improvement and further investigation.
