Summary:

The South Putnam Community Schools district in Indiana consists of 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from preschool through 12th grade.

Among the standout schools in the district, Fillmore Elementary School ranks 100 out of 1,005 Indiana elementary schools and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school consistently performs well on ILEARN tests, with over 56% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and nearly 69% in Math. South Putnam Middle School also stands out, ranking 99 out of 480 Indiana middle schools with a 4-star rating, and outperforming the district and state averages on ILEARN tests.

The district as a whole is ranked 65 out of 380 districts in Indiana and has a 4-star rating, indicating strong and consistent performance across the schools. However, the district faces a challenge with a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8% across all schools. Additionally, there is a significant difference in spending per student between the high school ($14,711) and the middle school ($7,978), which may warrant further examination of resource allocation and equity within the district.
