Indiana Gateway Digital Academy

Summary:

Indiana Gateway Digital Academy is an alternative public virtual school located in Clarksville, Indiana, serving grades K-12 with a total enrollment of 2,617 students. The school is part of the Greater Clark County Schools district, which is ranked 316 out of 381 school districts in Indiana and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Indiana Gateway Digital Academy faces significant challenges compared to nearby alternative schools like Rock Creek Community Academy and Community Montessori. The school has relatively low four-year graduation rates, reaching only 60.4% in 2022-2023 and 42.1% in 2021-2022, significantly lower than the state average. Additionally, the school has high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching 48.3% in 2022-2023 and 38.4% in 2021-2022, much higher than the state and district averages. Academically, Indiana Gateway Digital Academy students perform significantly below state and district averages on ILEARN and SAT assessments across all grade levels and subject areas.

The school's challenges may be attributed to its high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 70.31% in 2022-2023, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Additionally, the school's relatively low per-student spending, at $6,158 in 2021-2022, may be a factor in the academic underperformance and high absenteeism rates, suggesting a need for additional resources and support. With a high student-teacher ratio of 30.7 in 2022-2023, the school may also face challenges in providing personalized attention and support to its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
