Summary:
The 47710 zip code area of Evansville, Indiana is home to 4 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp district. While the schools vary in their academic performance, two standout institutions are Highland Elementary School and Thompkins Middle School, which consistently outperform district and state averages in English Language Arts and Math proficiency.
In contrast, Cedar Hall Community School struggles academically, with significantly lower proficiency rates compared to the other schools and the district as a whole. This disparity may be linked to the school's higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, as indicated by the high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, particularly at Cedar Hall Community School, which has a rate of 38.3%, significantly higher than the other schools in the area.
Overall, the data reveals a diverse set of schools within the 47710 zip code, with some institutions excelling while others face challenges. The findings highlight the importance of addressing factors such as socioeconomic status, chronic absenteeism, and resource allocation to promote more equitable and effective education for all students in the district. By identifying and replicating the successful strategies employed at the higher-performing schools, the district can work to improve outcomes across all of its schools.
