Summary:

The Rising Sun-Ohio County Community School District in Indiana is home to a single high school, Rising Sun High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and star rating over the past few years, dropping from 200 out of 398 Indiana high schools in 2022-2023 to 270 out of 429 in 2024-2025, with its rating decreasing from 3 stars to 2 stars out of 5 during this period.

Rising Sun High School's four-year graduation rate was 88.4% in the 2023-2024 school year, but the school has struggled with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% during the same period. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in ILEARN/Biology (18.75%) and SAT/Mathematics (12.73%) were significantly below the district average, while its proficiency rate in SAT/Evidence-based Reading and Writing (58.18%) matched the district average. The school serves a population with a relatively high percentage of students (39.91%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may be impacting its academic performance.

Despite the district's relatively high spending of $15,045 per student, Rising Sun High School appears to be facing challenges in maintaining its academic performance and addressing issues such as chronic absenteeism and uneven test score results. The school's declining statewide ranking and star rating suggest that it may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes and better support the needs of its student population.
