Summary:
The Madison-Grant United School Corp district in Indiana consists of 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The district's performance is mixed, with Madison-Grant Junior/Senior High School standing out as the top-performing school, ranking 71st out of 431 Indiana high schools and earning a 4-star rating. In contrast, the district's virtual schools, particularly at the elementary and middle school levels, significantly underperform compared to the traditional schools in academic measures such as ILEARN proficiency rates.
Chronic absenteeism is a significant concern across the district, ranging from 3.7% at Park Elementary School to 46.8% at Virtual Preparatory Academy of Indiana at Madison-Grant 92. The high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 34.29% to 63.55%, suggest that many students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which may be a factor in the lower academic performance. Targeted interventions and support programs could help address these challenges and improve educational outcomes for all students in the district.
While the strong performance of Madison-Grant Junior/Senior High School highlights the district's potential, the significant underperformance of the virtual schools and the high chronic absenteeism rates across the district suggest that there is room for improvement in addressing the unique challenges faced by the schools and their student populations.
