North Lawrence Com Schools

Summary:

The North Lawrence Com Schools district in Indiana consists of 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with varying levels of free and reduced lunch rates and spending per student across the schools.

Among the standout schools in the district, Parkview Elementary School and Needmore Elementary School consistently outperform the district and state averages on ILEARN tests in English Language Arts and Math. These schools also have the lowest student-teacher ratios in the district, which may contribute to their academic success. In contrast, Bedford Middle School and Lincoln Elementary School have struggled to maintain strong academic performance compared to their peers.

The district's graduation rates are relatively strong, with Bedford-North Lawrence High School achieving an 88.7% four-year graduation rate in 2022-2023. However, chronic absenteeism remains a concern, with Bedford Middle School having the highest rate at 30.4% in the same year. Overall, the data analysis reveals a mix of high-performing and struggling schools within the North Lawrence Com Schools district, providing valuable insights for parents and educators to address the needs of their students.
