High Schools in Options Charter Schools

The Options Charter Schools district in Indiana operates three high schools: Options Indiana, Options Westfield, and Options Noblesville. While the district as a whole appears to be underperforming compared to state averages, there are notable differences in the performance of these three schools.

Options Westfield stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, with the best test scores and highest proficiency rates in SAT/Evidence-based Reading and Writing. In contrast, Options Noblesville has the lowest test scores and proficiency rates, with 0% proficiency in ILEARN English Language Arts and Math. All three schools have relatively low graduation rates, around 88.4%, compared to the state average, and high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.8% to 17.8%, which are significantly higher than the state average.

The data also reveals a wide range in per-student spending, from $8,474 at Options Indiana to $21,124 at Options Noblesville, suggesting that funding alone may not be the primary driver of the schools' performance. The relatively low free/reduced lunch rates across the district also raise questions about the factors contributing to the overall poor academic outcomes, as these schools may not be representative of the broader socioeconomic challenges faced by many Indiana schools.
