Summary:
The city of Lawrenceburg, Indiana is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. These schools are part of the Lawrenceburg Community School Corp and the Sunman-Dearborn Com School Corp. The data reveals that Bright Elementary School and Central Elementary School are standout performers, consistently ranking in the top 40% of Indiana elementary schools despite being in districts with varying rankings.
Bright Elementary, part of the higher-ranked Sunman-Dearborn district, has a 3-star rating and test scores that generally exceed district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Math. Central Elementary, part of the lower-ranked Lawrenceburg district, also has a 3-star rating and test scores that surpass the district average, especially in Math. In contrast, Lawrenceburg High School struggles with test scores below the district and state averages, particularly in ILEARN Biology and SAT Math.
Across the district, a concerning trend is the consistently high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% among all schools. This issue, along with the varying performance levels, suggests the need for the district to address attendance and support struggling schools, while also learning from the successful practices of high-performing schools like Bright Elementary and Central Elementary.
