Summary:
The city of Jeffersonville, Indiana is home to 10 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Greater Clark County Schools district. The data reveals significant performance gaps between the highest-performing and lowest-performing schools, with Utica Elementary School and Riverside Elementary School standing out as the top-performing elementary schools, while Franklin Square Elementary School and W.E. Wilson Elementary struggle with lower proficiency rates.
The data also highlights the relationship between socioeconomic factors and academic performance, with schools serving higher percentages of students from low-income families generally performing worse on standardized tests. Chronic absenteeism is another concern, particularly at the alternative Old Corden Porter School, which likely contributes to the academic challenges faced by those students. Despite these challenges, Jeffersonville High School maintains a strong 90.7% four-year graduation rate, a positive indicator of student success.
Overall, the data provides a comprehensive view of the schools in Jeffersonville, highlighting both areas of strength and opportunities for improvement. By addressing the performance gaps, socioeconomic disparities, and attendance issues, the Greater Clark County Schools district can work to ensure equitable access to high-quality education for all students in the community.
