Summary:
North Knox School Corp operates a single high school, North Knox Junior-Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school's performance is generally consistent across subject areas, with test scores matching the North Knox School Corp district averages but falling below state averages. While the school has a respectable 88.4% four-year graduation rate, it faces challenges with a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%.
Academically, North Knox Junior-Senior High School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (31.22% for all grades) and Math (25.98% for all grades) are slightly below the district averages but significantly lower than state benchmarks. The school's performance on the SAT is also on par with the district, with 49.41% of students proficient in Evidence-based Reading and Writing and only 14.12% proficient in Mathematics. The school's spending of $11,572 per student and a student-teacher ratio of 15:1 are within reasonable ranges, but their impact on student outcomes is unclear.
Given that North Knox Junior-Senior High School is the only high school in the district, there are no clear standout schools to compare it to. However, the data suggests that the school serves a relatively economically disadvantaged student population, with 57.37% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the school's academic challenges and higher chronic absenteeism rate, which will require further investigation and targeted interventions to address.
