Summary:
The Griffith Public Schools district in Indiana consists of 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Elsie Wadsworth Elementary and Beiriger Elementary) and 1 junior/senior high school (Griffth Junior/Senior High School). The data reveals a mix of strengths and areas for improvement across the district.
Beiriger Elementary stands out as a high performer, ranking 472 out of 1,010 Indiana elementary schools and outperforming the district and state averages in several academic areas, including math, English language arts, and social studies. In contrast, Griffth Junior/Senior High School struggles, with proficiency rates below the state average in many subjects, particularly on the SAT.
Across the district, chronic absenteeism rates range from 11.4% to 14.3%, indicating a need for improved student engagement and attendance. Additionally, the variation in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios suggests a potential imbalance in resource allocation, which may contribute to the disparities in academic performance. By addressing these areas, the Griffith Public Schools district can work towards providing a more equitable and high-quality education for all students.
