Elementary Schools in MSD Lawrence Township

Summary:

The MSD Lawrence Township school district in Indiana is home to 12 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. While the district as a whole is ranked 279 out of 381 school districts in the state and rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, a few standout schools are outperforming the district average.

Forest Glen Elementary School and Amy Beverland Elementary are the top-performing schools in the district, with Forest Glen ranking 155 out of 1,010 Indiana elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating. These schools significantly outperform the district on ILEARN test scores, have lower chronic absenteeism rates, and spend less per student compared to the district average of $13,931.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, which appear to be closely linked to socioeconomic factors. Schools with the highest poverty rates, such as Harrison Hill Elementary, Brook Park Elementary, and Winding Ridge Elementary, consistently have the lowest test scores. Addressing these disparities, along with the district's high chronic absenteeism rates, could be crucial steps in improving overall student outcomes across the MSD Lawrence Township school district.
