High Schools in Herron-Riverside High School


Summary:

Herron-Riverside High School is the sole high school in the data set, serving grades 9-12 in Indianapolis, Indiana. With a total enrollment of 398 students, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 138 out of 398 schools in 2022-2023 to 277 out of 429 schools in 2024-2025, earning a 2-star rating. Despite a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 88.4% in 2023-2024, the school faces challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% and low proficiency rates in ILEARN/Biology (13.51%), SAT/Evidence-based Reading and Writing (50%), and SAT/Mathematics (16.35%) in the 2024-2025 school year.

The school's student population is predominantly from low-income families, with 69.1% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the school's academic performance, as evidenced by the declining statewide ranking and low test scores. The school's spending per student of $14,793 in 2023-2024 is relatively high, suggesting that resources are being allocated to support the students, but the academic outcomes have not yet reflected these investments.

Overall, Herron-Riverside High School faces a range of challenges, including declining statewide rankings, high chronic absenteeism, and low proficiency rates in core academic subjects. The school's high percentage of students from low-income families may be a contributing factor to these challenges, and the school's leadership and community will need to work together to address these issues and improve educational outcomes for the students.
