Bartholomew Con School Corp

Summary:

The Bartholomew Con School Corp district in Indiana consists of 15 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 160 out of 381 districts in the state and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

A few schools stand out as high-performing in the district. CSA Lincoln Campus, an elementary school, consistently ranks among the top in the state with a 5-star rating and exceptional test scores, with 75.96% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 83.65% in Math. Southside Elementary School also performs very well, ranking in the top 10% of Indiana elementary schools with high proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (56.95%) and Math (63.55%). In contrast, the district's middle schools, Northside and Central, perform below the state average in both subjects.

The data reveals a significant achievement gap between the highest and lowest performing schools, particularly in Math. For example, in 3rd grade Math, Southside Elementary had 66.67% proficiency compared to just 26.14% at Clifty Creek Elementary. Chronic absenteeism rates also vary widely, from as low as 5.8% at Rockcreek Elementary to as high as 26.1% at Columbus East High School. Addressing these disparities could be an important focus for the district to improve outcomes across all schools.
