While Milan High School has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 89.5% to 94.9% over the past five years, it faces some challenges in academic performance. The school's test scores, particularly in mathematics, are generally lower than the state and surrounding school averages, with only 23.6% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in SAT Mathematics, compared to the state average of 31.14%. Additionally, Milan High School has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 11.6% in 2020-2021 to 28.3% in 2021-2022, which is higher than the surrounding schools such as Batesville High School and Lawrenceburg High School.

Interestingly, Milan High School has a relatively high percentage of students (47.26% in 2022-2023) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than the surrounding schools, suggesting a lower socioeconomic status that may impact academic performance. However, the school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.7 to 15.4 over the past three years, which is lower than the surrounding schools. While Milan High School's performance is generally lower than the top-performing schools in the area, such as East Central High School, it performs better than some of the lower-ranked schools, such as South Dearborn High School and Jac-Cen-Del Middle School/High 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.
