Summary

New Middletown Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in the South Harrison Com Schools district in Indiana. The school has 110 students and is located in New Middletown, IN, a community within the district.

While the South Harrison Com Schools district is ranked 95 out of 380 in Indiana and rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, New Middletown Elementary School faces some challenges. The school has consistently lower proficiency rates in ELA, Math, and Science compared to the district and state averages, with the largest gaps in 3rd grade ELA and 5th grade Science. Additionally, the school has higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.9% to 19.4% over the past few years, which is above the state average. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 50.91% to 58.65%.

Interestingly, when comparing New Middletown Elementary School to nearby schools, both within and outside the South Harrison Com Schools district, the school's performance is relatively lower. For example, Greenville Elementary and Georgetown Elementary, which are outside the district, have significantly higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Within the district, Heth-Washington Elementary School and South Central Elementary also have similar test score profiles to New Middletown Elementary School. The school's declining statewide ranking, from 170 out of 1,033 Indiana elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 445 out of 1,005 in 2024-2025, suggests the need for a closer examination of the school's instructional practices, resource allocation, and support for students and teachers.
