Summary:
The South Knox School Corp district in Indiana has only one elementary school, South Knox Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school has a predominantly white student population, with limited racial and ethnic diversity. While the school performs well in math and social studies, its English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates are slightly below the state average, and it struggles with a higher-than-recommended chronic absenteeism rate.
Academically, South Knox Elementary School stands out for its strong performance in math, with 50.65% of students proficient or better, which is higher than the state average of 38.1%. The school also excels in social studies, with 56.32% of 5th-grade students proficient or better, significantly above the state average of 38.1%. However, the school's ELA proficiency rate of 40.21% is slightly below the state average of 41.1% for 6th grade.
One area of concern for South Knox Elementary School is its high chronic absenteeism rate of 8.8%, which is significantly higher than the state's target of 5% or less. This could be an issue that the school and district need to address to ensure students are consistently attending and engaged in their education. Overall, while the school has some strengths, it also faces challenges in terms of academic performance and student attendance that may require further attention and intervention.
