High Schools in Excel Center - Shelbyville

Summary:

The Excel Center - Shelbyville serves high school students (grades 9-12) as a public charter high school. This analysis focuses on the single school within this specific dataset, providing a detailed look at its performance and characteristics.

Excel Center - Shelbyville presents a mixed performance profile. While it demonstrates a strong four-year graduation rate of 88.4%, indicating success in keeping students on track to graduate, its statewide rankings are notably low. In both the 2022-2023 and 2021-2022 academic years, it ranked among the bottom 10% of Indiana high schools, receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. This low ranking is further underscored by alarmingly low SAT proficiency scores, particularly in Mathematics, where 0% of 11th graders met proficiency standards in the reported years. The Evidence-based Reading and Writing proficiency also falls significantly below the state average. A chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% is a concern, potentially impacting academic engagement and success. The school serves a student body where 61.78% qualify for free or reduced lunch, suggesting a significant portion of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. With a student-teacher ratio of 22.4 and spending per student of $3,727, the school operates with fewer resources per student compared to state averages, which could influence its ability to provide additional academic support.

These findings suggest that while Excel Center - Shelbyville is effective in graduating its students, there are significant challenges in academic achievement, particularly in standardized testing. The high rate of chronic absenteeism and the socioeconomic profile of its students may necessitate targeted interventions and increased support services. The school's lower per-student spending and higher student-teacher ratio also highlight potential resource constraints that could be impacting its capacity to address these academic challenges comprehensively. For parents considering this school, it's important to weigh the strong graduation rates against the concerning academic performance metrics and consider the school's resource allocation.
