Randolph Southern has a predominantly white student population, with 88.6% of students identifying as white, which is significantly higher than nearby schools like Richmond High School (62.91% white) and Hagerstown Junior-Senior High School (92.8% white). The school's academic performance has been mixed, with its statewide ranking fluctuating from 119th out of 409 Indiana high schools in 2021-2022 (4-star rating) to 323rd out of 431 in 2023-2024 (1-star rating). However, Randolph Southern has maintained strong graduation rates, with a 96.5% four-year graduation rate in 2022-2023, higher than the rates of nearby schools like Richmond High School (98.7%) and Union City Community Junior/Senior High (85.2%).

One concerning trend at Randolph Southern is the significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 9.2% in 2020-2021 to 25.9% in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 51.75% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average. These factors may be contributing to the school's academic challenges and warrant further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student attendance, engagement, and support for economically disadvantaged 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.
