Northeast Dubois County School Corp

The Northeast Dubois County School Corp district in Indiana serves students from preschool through 12th grade across three schools: Northeast Dubois Junior/Senior High School, Northeast Dubois Elementary School, and Northeast Dubois Intermediate School. The district is known for its strong academic performance, particularly at the junior/senior high school and intermediate school levels.

Northeast Dubois Junior/Senior High School stands out as a top-performing school, ranking 64th out of 431 Indiana high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts an impressive 88.4% 4-year graduation rate and consistently outperforms the district and state averages in student test scores, especially in math. Northeast Dubois Intermediate School is also a standout, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Indiana elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating. The school's math and science proficiency rates are particularly impressive, with 63.03% of students proficient or better in math and 61.7% proficient in 4th-grade science.

While the district overall performs well, there are some areas for improvement. All three schools have a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, and the elementary schools have higher free/reduced lunch rates compared to the junior/senior high school, suggesting potential equity concerns. The district should investigate the underlying causes of the chronic absenteeism and consider targeted interventions to address this issue and ensure equitable access to quality education across all schools.
