Heritage Junior/Senior High School

Summary:

Heritage Junior/Senior High School is a public high school located in Monroeville, Indiana, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 737 students. The school is part of the East Allen County Schools district, which is ranked 165 out of 381 districts in Indiana and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Heritage Junior/Senior High School has a relatively diverse student population, with 59.43% White, 10.45% African American, 9.91% Hispanic, and 16.15% Asian students, its academic performance is generally lower than the state and district averages. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Indiana high schools, with a ranking of 262 out of 431 in the 2023-2024 school year and a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its four-year graduation rate has ranged from 80.3% to 89.7% over the past five years, which is lower than the state and district averages. Additionally, the school has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 27.2% to 50.0% in recent years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Woodlan Junior/Senior High School and Adams Central High School, both also in the East Allen County Schools district, Heritage Junior/Senior High School generally underperforms in academic measures, including test scores and graduation rates. The school's high rates of chronic absenteeism and the relatively high percentage of students from low-income families may be contributing factors to its lower academic performance, and addressing these underlying issues could be crucial in improving the overall performance of the school.

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.
