While College Corner Union Elementary School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (93.36%) compared to the state average, its academic performance lags behind.

Additionally, the school has experienced higher chronic absenteeism rates (18.5%) compared to the state average (16.4%).

For example, Liberty Elementary School, which is also in the Union County/College Corner Joint School District, outperforms College Corner Union Elementary School on ILEARN tests and has a lower chronic absenteeism rate. The school's declining statewide ranking, from a high of 247 out of 1,027 Indiana elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 487 out of 1,010 schools in 2023-2024, suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.

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.
