Summary:

The Scott County School District 2 in Indiana operates 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district serves students in a range of socioeconomic backgrounds, with free/reduced lunch rates varying widely across the schools.

Within the district, a few schools stand out for their strong academic performance. Lexington Elementary School and Johnson Elementary School consistently perform above the district and state averages on ILEARN tests, with 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Scottsburg Elementary School lags behind, suggesting significant variation in elementary school performance across the district. At the secondary level, Scottsburg High School maintains a 3-star rating and a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 88.4%.

A key concern across the district is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, there appears to be a correlation between higher free/reduced lunch rates and lower academic performance at some schools, highlighting the impact of socioeconomic factors. The district also shows disparities in funding, with spending per student ranging from $10,001 at Vienna-Finley Elementary to $14,232 at the Early Learning Academy, which may contribute to the differences in school performance and resources available to students.
