Summary:
The Wes-Del Community Schools district in Indiana has one elementary school, Wes-Del Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 and has an enrollment of 418 students. While the school has some positive metrics, such as relatively high math proficiency rates, it also faces significant challenges, including lower-than-average performance in English Language Arts and Social Studies, as well as a high chronic absenteeism rate.
Wes-Del Elementary School's student population is predominantly white (93.3%), with small percentages of Hispanic (4.31%), African American (0.48%), and Asian (0.24%) students. The school has a high percentage of students (56.46%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. The school's per-student spending of $10,011 is slightly above the state average, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.4 to 1.
While Wes-Del Elementary School has some strengths, such as its math proficiency rates, it faces significant challenges in other areas. The school's performance has declined over the past three years, and it shows significant gaps between different subject areas and grade levels. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate and the economic disadvantages faced by the student population may be key priorities for the school and district in order to improve overall academic performance.
