Best Public Schools in Patricksburg, IN

Summary:

The city of Patricksburg, Indiana is home to a single public elementary school, Patricksburg Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 and has a total enrollment of 129 students. The school is part of the Spencer-Owen Community Schools district, which is ranked 176 out of 381 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Patricksburg Elementary School does not appear to be a standout school in the state, as its academic performance, as measured by ILEARN proficiency rates, is generally below the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Social Studies. The school's ranking within the state has also declined over the past few years, dropping from 352 out of 1,016 Indiana elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 632 out of 1,010 in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.0%, which may be contributing to the lower academic performance.

Despite the school's challenges, it does have access to more resources in terms of staffing, with a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.4. However, the school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 76.74% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may present additional challenges in supporting student learning and achievement. Overall, Patricksburg Elementary School will need to focus on strategies to improve student learning outcomes and attendance to better serve its community.
