Summary:

The zip code 46360 in Indiana is home to a single high school, Michigan City High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism, low academic performance, and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Michigan City High School has a total enrollment of 1,555 students, with a diverse racial makeup. However, the school's four-year graduation rate of 85.9% is slightly below the state average. Academically, the school struggles, with only 32.49% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in SAT/Evidence-based Reading and Writing, and 12.99% proficient or better in SAT/Mathematics. The school's performance on the ILEARN/Biology End of Course exam is also low, with only 7.58% of students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 29%.

Despite the higher-than-average per-student spending of $16,628 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.6, the school's challenges persist. The high chronic absenteeism rate of 52.4% and the high percentage of students (71.19%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggest that the school serves a population with significant economic and social challenges. Michigan City Area Schools may need to implement targeted interventions and allocate resources more effectively to address these issues and improve the educational experience and outcomes for students at Michigan City High School.
