Summary:
The Tri-Central Community Schools district in Indiana is home to a single high school, Tri Central Middle-High School, which serves grades 7-12. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and per-student spending, its academic performance, as measured by ILEARN and SAT proficiency rates, is significantly below the state and district averages.
Tri Central Middle-High School's enrollment of 410 students is predominantly White (86.1%), with a significant population of economically disadvantaged students (45.61% free and reduced-price lunch rate). The school's four-year graduation rate is a positive indicator at 93.1%, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 15.7% is higher than the state average, which may be contributing to the lower academic achievement.
While the school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with a higher proficiency rate in 2022-2023 compared to 2023-2024, the overall trend suggests that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the academic performance concerns and improve student learning outcomes. Addressing attendance issues and ensuring that the available resources are effectively translated into improved student outcomes should be priorities for the school and the Tri-Central Community Schools district.
