Summary:
The Caston School Corporation in Indiana is home to a single high school, Caston Junior-Senior High School, which serves grades 7-12. While the school has some academic strengths, such as slightly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts compared to the district average, it faces challenges in mathematics performance and chronic absenteeism.
Caston Junior-Senior High School's academic performance is mixed, with 40.31% of students proficient or better in ILEARN/English Language Arts, but only 33.51% proficient or better in ILEARN/Math. The school also struggles with a significant gap in SAT scores, with 48.28% of 11th-graders proficient or better in Evidence-based Reading and Writing, but only 27.59% proficient or better in Mathematics. This disparity suggests a need to focus on strengthening students' math skills and understanding.
Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 18.8% is relatively high, which may be contributing to its academic performance challenges. The school's ranking and rating have also fluctuated in recent years, indicating the need for a more consistent and sustained effort to improve overall school performance and maintain a higher level of academic excellence. By addressing these areas of concern, the Caston School Corporation can work to enhance the educational experience and outcomes for the students at Caston Junior-Senior High School.
