Summary:
The Edinburgh Community School Corp district in Indiana has one middle school, Edinburgh Community Middle School, serving students in grades 6-8. The school faces some academic challenges, with test scores generally below state averages in English Language Arts and Math. However, the school's student-teacher ratio is relatively low, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention and support for students.
Edinburgh Community Middle School has an enrollment of 173 students, with a racial makeup of 85.55% White, 10.4% Hispanic, and 4.05% two or more races. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is 20.4%, which is relatively high and may indicate a need for improved student engagement and attendance. Additionally, with 71.1% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the school likely serves a population with lower socioeconomic status, which can be a contributing factor to the academic performance challenges.
In terms of academic performance, the school's ILEARN test scores are below the state averages in both English Language Arts and Math across all grade levels. The school's ELA and Math proficiency rates are also lower than the district averages. The school's Science proficiency rate of 20.83% is also significantly below the state average of 38.2%. While the school's spending per student of $9,859 is within the typical range for middle schools in Indiana, it is unclear how this funding is allocated and utilized to support student learning and outcomes.
