Summary:
The Anderson Community School Corp district in Indiana is home to two middle schools: Highland Middle School and Anderson Intermediate School. Both schools have consistently performed below average compared to state-level metrics, with no clear standout schools in the district.
According to the data, Highland Middle School has ranked in the bottom 20% of Indiana middle schools over the past three school years, with proficiency rates in ILEARN English Language Arts and Math that are often less than half the state averages. Similarly, Anderson Intermediate School has also struggled, with 6th grade ELA and Math proficiency rates well below the state averages. Both schools serve a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly economically disadvantaged population.
The data also reveals significant differences in resource allocation, with Highland Middle School spending significantly more per student ($15,363) compared to Anderson Intermediate School ($6,235 per student). However, this higher spending does not appear to be translating into better academic outcomes, suggesting the need for a closer examination of how resources are being utilized within the Anderson Community School Corp district.
