Elementary Schools in North Putnam Community Schools

The North Putnam Community Schools district in Indiana is home to two elementary schools: Bainbridge Elementary School and Roachdale Elementary School. While both schools serve a predominantly white student population, Roachdale Elementary School stands out as the stronger performer, with higher statewide rankings, better test scores, and a more favorable student-teacher ratio.

Roachdale Elementary School has a statewide ranking of 280 out of 1,010 Indiana elementary schools, compared to Bainbridge Elementary School's rank of 431. Additionally, Roachdale Elementary School boasts higher proficiency rates in ILEARN/English Language Arts and ILEARN/Math, as well as a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 19.0% compared to Bainbridge Elementary School's 18.1%.

While the North Putnam Community Schools district is ranked 105 out of 381 districts in Indiana and rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, both schools have experienced a decline in their statewide rankings over the past three school years. The district may need to address the higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates and the significant difference in student-teacher ratios between the two schools to ensure a more equitable and high-performing educational experience for all students.
